Default '08 Silverbirch CC Sierra 4x4

I just bought this truck last week and wanted to post some pics before I do some mods. The first mods are gonna be d-badging, front window tint, and muffler swap. Later I plan on putting on some all terrain tires, 2'' drop in the back, new grille, spray in bedliner, and maybe painted bumpers. Anyways here are some stock pics.









Also anybody with Pure Silver or Silverbirch trucks, I would really like to see them. Thanks!

Looks good, I think you should swap to the Sierra All Terrain grille.

Nice. If your going with AT's, why not lift the front?

Well would it be easier to go with a 2'' lift in the front rather than a 2'' drop in the rear? Just wanted to decrease the space in between the fenders. What size tires can I run with 2'' lift compared to the 2'' drop? Thanks!

I went with a 2.25" ReadyLift front leveling kit, and it made enough room for 285/70R17 BFG Rugged Terrain T/As on stock wheels. The tires scrubbed a little at full steering lock before I put the kit on.

2 cents

So which is easier to install, 2'' lift kit in the front or the 2'' rear drop?
What are the price comparison and brands to choose from? Thanks!

285/55/20 is what I would go with.
