Looks awesome! Cut those bump stops off the front shocks, you'll never bottom them out.

I read 38's, and Mark you should do some black rims... did you ever get your 40's Mark?

I really wanted the Octane fuels in black, I think they?re hot...

I did get 40?s on.

Nice Mark, are they rubbing? Mine rubbed like crazy with 12" wide wheels.

The only time they rub is if I have the wheel turned all the way to the right and go in reverse, you can juuuust hear them rub. You would think if they rubbed, they would rub in either direction.

... but like I said, haaardly.

So you?re not running 12?s? How wide are you running?

[Bimmer9938]

I do run 12's, so they would rub more when turning then your 10's. Yea mine would catch the fender liners in reverse so I had to trim a lil off. Plus the Super Swamper is a true 40" measuring 40" which doesn't help.

haha. I appreciate it! Might I add the Crush is lookin goood right now. It's freakin HUGE! I just looked at your pics with 40's, then back to mine with 38's and it's amazing how much more rubber you have. And my tires are enormous!

No I didn't opt for the 9000s. I don't need adjustability. I got it on my Camaro and I only change it when I race it. I figure the adjustable shocks on the hummer would probably stay at the same setting as the 5000 would be. Did you install the kit yourself?

[tyler1bo]

No I didn't do the install, I had my offroad installers take care of that..are you planning on doing the install yourself?

Looks bad ass! Can't wait to do my lift! Pretty much same setup as you. Looks awesome. Very jelious right now.

[tyler1bo]

You will love it! I hope you ordered the RS9000's because they truly are amazing. 9 levels of adjustability, I can make it as stiff as a ferrari or soft as a pillow.

I think I might go with the Rancho 4'' and the same size wheel/tire combo. -42 offset right?

The keys were added with the lift, so I couldn't tell you how they fit with just the rancho. But I believe they'd do just fine, there's other members on here who have run just the 4" kit with 38's and had no issues. I've been very pleased with the kit thus far, however, if I were to do it again I'd go atleast 7". (But that's just me wanting more ) and the wheels are 20x10 in a -24 offset.

Thanks!!

I added keys when I was still on 37's as well, but if you add keys you will want to add Cognitio UCA's for more down travel and to correct some of the angles. Also have 2" BL as well on 40's.
