Finally got my new wheels, I gave up trying to hunt the right 20x12 set so I settled for 20x10 XD Diesels, after all they dont look bad at all, I wanted to test how big I could go with a simple 3" leveling kit so I bought some used 38x15.5x20s diiiirty cheap, so I'll run those for a few thousand miles until I get brand new tires.
The roof rack is not nearly done yet, I just wanted to throw it on there to test how it would fit and what else I could add to it....
Enjoy the pics, still a lot more to do:jump:

Re: Updated pics....
 

Lookin' good man Can't wait to see it in a couple weeks. Do you have rear air suspension??? If so make sure you do the Air Sensor Mod. If not the first time you flex that suspension on the trail at Windrock you will be sorry lol.

Re: Updated pics....
 

Thanks guys!
I love it...there is not many "hooked up" Hummers around here so I'm defenitely turning a lot more heads now...


Nope, Springs... but thanks for looking out:)
I'm still debating if I should take the 38"s there.... if I can get some really cheap used 35s on 17s I'll throw them on my stock wheels so I dont scratch the new 20s... we'll see....

Re: Updated pics....
 

looks awesome!! What did you use to blackout your side markers?

Re: Updated pics....
 

Rippspeed recommended this and it works awesome...

Just wet sand them with 800 grain paper and spray them.... good to go!

Re: Updated pics....
 

Ur over the hood brushguard design is one of the best I've seen. The ebay cheapo spots look good too! Imho though, the roof rack needs bigger diameter tubing. Maybe thinner to reduce weight, but the bigger diam will match the brushguard better. And while ur at it, maybe u can design a more eye-catching/solid rear tailight guards too?

Don't the 38s rub like crazy?

Re: Updated pics....
 

Thanks man! that means a lot, you're right on the roof rack, and honestly its just the outter frame right now, I'm gonna make it look a lot fuller and beefier, once i'm done with it I'll see if I like it and I'll either make another one or keep it, and good ida on the taillight guards.... hmmmmm:clapping:

38s DID rub a little bit, but not as much as I thought it was gonna rub, I "modified" the lower plastic piece on the inside of the fender so they dont rub anymore, the -24mm offset does help, I wish I could have found that 20x12 RBP set with a -50mm cuz that wouldn't have rubbed at all. But I'm really happy with it, no more rubbing and it looks killer:D

Thanks for the compliments!

Re: Updated pics....
 

If your mirrors were chrome, what type of paint and prep did you do?
Truck looks great. Good Job!!!

Re: Updated pics....
 

very nice! Kinda has that Macy Gray thing going on.

Re: Updated pics....
 

Macy Gray thing??

Re: Updated pics....
 

Macy Gray (female musician) own the hummer i posted. ;) your 38x15.5's make the unit look very strong. Nice to see someone step out from the safe bet of the 35 12x5 and 35x13.5

Re: Updated pics....
 

Wholy F"ing sheeat! That things is awesome!! Love the Road Armor front end, not sure about all the side bars and whatnut... And hey, thanks for the stepping up compliment, I like to be pushy sometimes:rolleyes:


Thanks! and I have no clue, I gave it to one of my neighbors along with the GM code blk paint, then paid him... no clue what he used or how, but they look killer and matched perfect.

Re: Updated pics....
 

Congrats man ! Gotta be one of the best lookin' rigs on this forum !!!! Keep up the good work !

BTW, your ride would be totally street illegal here in Belgium.

Frenzy
Belgium, Europe

Re: Updated pics....
 

Thanks Frenzy! and Why would I be illegal? ... I mean.. I kinda like it cuz the cant do sh*t about it from all the way over there.. ha! but ...at 8' tall am I too high? too black? way too awesome?? haha, jk..

Re: Updated pics....
 

What size Nitto's are you running??? Also is that a Truxx Lift or more??? Awesome ride... :perfect10s:

Re: Updated pics....
 

it's illegal to lift / put bigger tires on cars/trucks over here.

Re: Updated pics....
 

FIRST OFF ..I LOVE YOUR H2 LOOKS GREAT ....THANKFULLY YOU LIVE IN TENN. NOT IN NYC WHERE I LIVE ..CAUSE I WAS LOOKING AT THE SAME RIMS AND THE SAME TIRES AS YOU HAVE ON YOURS ,HERE IS MY QUESTION , I DONT WANT TO GO ANY BIGGER THAN 20" , I LOVE THE TIRE SIZE YOU HAVE , IF I WOULD DO THE SAME WOULD I NEED A LIFT KIT , SOMETHING I REALLY DONT WANT TO DO ...CAN YOU ADVISE ON THIS ....CHEERS MATE

Re: Updated pics....
 

Get 37x12.50x20 tires then you wont need a lift. BF Goodrich makes a set of Km2's that should fit this. No lift required.

Re: Updated pics....
 

Hey buddy, yes you will need at least a leveling kit on front and spacers out back, tires differ depending on their design so you need to be careful you dont rub too much, I have 38x15.5x20s and they did rub even with the "4in lift" that supposedly the 3" leveling kit gave me with and extra push on the torsion bolts until I made an adjustment to the inside plastic piece on the inside of the fenders, AND mine are pretty worn down (about 30% left) so that also helped I guess? The reason I bought the tires used was cuz I didn't want to spend the money on new ones without knowing how bad they would rub, but they barely fit.... so if you dont want to have any issues at all I would go with 37"s.
Good luck and post some pics, welcome to the board.:beerchug:

Re: Updated pics....
 

Andres, I've got the $ in hand for one of those bad A demon guards :dancingbanana:

Re: Updated pics....
 

Yes siiiir, currently working on yours, should have it done by next week before Windrock :jump:

Re: Updated pics....
 

dude your a beast! im stoked about Windrock :excited:

Hope you had fun in NY!

btw are you gonna leave the 38's on for windrock or are you switchin back to the 35's for it?

Re: Updated pics....
 

We are all Stoked for Windrock boys!!! As of this point in time we have over 40 Trucks registered. 23-H1's, 12-H2's and, 6-H3's. I also know a couple others who have not registered yet.... 99 People so far.... And with any luck I should have the new Rubberduck Treehugger on my truck to show off as well.

I will be trail leading a Moderate/Hard group. So if you are interested in running with me let me know!

Re: Updated pics....
 

Hell yes....!
and BigZ, i'm not sure yet, I think I might toss the 33"s in the hotel just in case my 38"s are just too big for it, it all depends, but I really wanna have the clearance that i'm getting right now with them on, we'll see:clapping:

Re: Updated pics....
 

33's???? I'd take my chances with worn 38's lol

Re: Updated pics....
 

x2. Just keep the wheelspin to a minimum and youll be fine. This is pretty much a rule of thumb with the H2 anyway unless you like busting up cv axles and tie rods(even the fabtechs).

You may rub your inner fenderwell when "articulating" but as long as your not slicing the tires youll be fine. Find somethign to make your front and rear articulate(hill, rock, log, 18wheeler loading dock, etc) and see how bad the rubbing is and youll know what to expect.

Re: Updated pics....
 

lol, well I think they're 33"s... Whatever the stock tire size is, same size just in a all terrain tire, but I might just stick with the 38s anyways, Good idea tho, i'm gonna go around climbing sh*t and see what happens.. Thanks!:jump:

Re: Updated pics....
 

The stockers are 35's. And your you set of 35's have good tread I would take them over your worn down M/T's. It really rocky there and A/T's do a great job on the rocks especially when its wet out the A/T's will get much better grip on slick rock than the Toyo M/T's.

Re: Updated pics....
 

well, you have a very good point, these are the 3...5"s that I have, I thought they were 33s but they only have 3K miles on them, and now the truck is lifted a little too.
I'm so torn, I'm just not gonna go...... ha, jk, I'll probably try violating my 38s and see how they do offroad this weekend, depending on that I'll probably throw the 35s on.

Re: Updated pics....
 

Awesome look! I think the H2 is about the only vehicle taht looks good all black, everyhting else seems to need some chrome or something...

by the way there is also VHT Night Shades which is the most popular for blacking out. Best results would also be from sanding and adding a clear coat at the end.. the clear is important as it will look very dull if not, and cheapen the look of the truck...

Re: Updated pics....
 

Your H2 looks great! I especially like the fabricated the front brush guard. Good Job man!

Reggie

Re: Updated pics....
 

Thank you sir! let me know if you're interested in one:D

Re: Updated pics....
 

ROUSHDEMON, that brush guard is sic! Very nice! Maybe one day my black H2 will see one too!

Shan

Re: Updated pics....
 

Thank you Shan, just let me know when you're ready.:beerchug:

Re: Updated pics....
 

Roush, tell me all about your Goodyear Duratracs, i have been eyeing these for a while as a great replacement for stock BFG A/T.I haven?t seen one person on any forum give a review on how they are for a Hummer. How do they handle and balance up? Are the 35's giving you enough clearance? Too bad they dont make those in 37's. If you have time could you post a good review on what you think of the Duratracs and maybe more pics! Thank you
