Default Thinking about losing the 24's

So my LTZ rides like a low rider. Some of you know what I'm talking about (Mcgauhys 2/3 drop).

Thinking about powder coating my stock 20's gunmetal/back... what is your guys feedback on that or should I get after market 20's?!?!?

The dealer wants $600 to return itback to stock and I think that is very pricy considering it only cost me $250 in labor to drop it. Anyone know good shops in vegas, or maybe if any of you "handyman" types out here in Vegas is upfor the installI'd rather pay you the $$.

With that being said. I may have 24" Moz Dinner rolls for sale in Black/chrome that I paid $3880 (10,000 miles on the tires, kuhmo 305/35/24 stx, Great condition been rotated twice) Any offers???

P.s. Anyone know if they came out with coil springs for the rear thatare less bouncy???

Trying to figure what to do...

Tim

I'm not sure I didn't do the install. Does it say to do so in theinstructions, if so they may have.Should I purchase a new set at the dealer?!

Any pics of those wheels on your ride? Do you think the ride is rougher because of the drop or the wheels or a combination of both?

Oh, I forgot to mention that I have a 22" Dinner Rolls on my 07. I have the all chrome ones. I do not have a lowering kit and my ride is pretty close to the stock 20's, just a tad bit rougher but nothing noticeable. I wanted 24's but didn't want to sacrifice ride quality so I settled for the 22's.

So, my point is, you could go with 22's...

I had the 24's on before the drop and it rode 85% as well as stock... after the lowering, well it all went downhill from there.

Colorado Chief... I do have pics but don't know how to post them. How about you, would love to seeyour truck!

Posting the pic is pretty easy...when you open the reply window there is a file area at the bottom, just click the upload link and attach the pic from your computer. You might have to resize the pic, I did. Just use Photoshop or something to resize it.
