How did it affect the ride? DO you have any pictures?
I will get pics of the Tahoe on Tuesday when the rims arrive. I'll take a pic of both lowered and stock height.

My wife has the 24" Boss 313(chrome) on her white LTZ and my buddy is puting on a set of 24" U2-55's on his LT.

At first there was not any rubbing. However after a few more miles the rear tires started rubbing on the inner fender liner. I shaved the liner and the rubbing is gone. I think the offset is 30 or 40, I can't recall.

Landon, did you decide on lowering? 100 bucks seem fair for the job. Post pics when it gets done, if you are going for it.

you do have to use the blue rubber piece from the stock springs and put it on the new ones.

Why, what purpose do they serve?
