Some updated pics of my truck and wifey's Denali. Finally worked a deal on the crapperbox Element she had to get the Denali. It's got a 3/4 drop and 22" U2-55's. My truck has the Rough Country 7.5" lift, 22X12 Ion Forged Terminator wheels, and 35x12.50 toyo Open Country M/T's.
And another little project I've been working on.....

is your truck two or four wheel drive? did you have to use 7.5 to fit 35s? |

The truck is 4WD, and yes, I had to go that high to clear 35's. 1 thing though, because I bought 12" wide wheels, it doesn't clear them too well. These NNBS trucks has some screwed up fenderwells. Most people still have to trim a lot out of the bumper and inner fenderliners so they won't rub. |

Those rims on your truck look awsome, its good to see someone actually put nice rims and tires on a truck not the usual garbage. |

It's probably the offset of the rims. Mine do that on my truck but not quite as much.
Also, I don't think he has the truck anymore. Sweet looking F-250 in its place if I remember correctly. |

The F-250 was sold, then bought the GMC, lifted it, sold it, now have the CTS-V and Denali.
The GMC did have 2" wheel spacers under the rear wheels. It also helps that those wheels are 22X12 with a -25mm offset (IIRC).

It came before the GMC, and that couldn't have been too soon. It rode pretty harsh and wifey was pregnant at the time. We took 2 2.5 hour roadtrips pulling the boat with that truck and we both get pretty worn out from riding in it. It pulled like nobody's business though. |

I've had 5 or 6 sets of the Toyo M/T's in all different sizes. They've all been great. Balanced almost perfectly (even 37's), pretty quiet, and got pretty good mileage out of them. A customer stopped by with a set of 33's last night on his 1/2 ton and they had 15K miles on them, looked to be about half-tread life left. |
