Default New wheels for the Denali ??

Well I'm thinking about throwing a set of wheels on the SD, and I'm kinda struggling. First I can't deside if I wanna lower like everything else I've done and loved. Or do something alil different, my brother bought a new raptor and kinda has me tempted to ad alil travel so he can't one up me with a damn ford. And we do go out and play in the sand dunes. However I'm building a long travel sand rail so i have an offroad toy.

With that I will need to tow and still want a nice ride, I loved the look of my lowered supercharged silverado ss on22s However it wasn't a very good ride..althoo that was a torsion front end and the Denali is a coil over strut so I'm guessing it would ride better either way ??

Anyways now that I've rambled I was poking around on eBay and found a couple sets of wheels I really like, FYI my truck is black so I wanna do a black wheel . Here is what Ive come up with so far ...oppinions other options

24" U2W55 BLACK WHEELS RIM TIRES 6X139.7 ESCALADE 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 | eBay

22" Black Escalade Wheels Fit Cadillac GMC Chevy Suburban Murdered Set of 4 Rims | eBay

24 x 10, 6 x 5.5" STYLE 3302, BLACK P Boss Wheels, | eBay

22 INCH WHEELS + TIRES U2W55 MATTE BLACK SIERRA 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 | eBay

I'd personally go with the 22" CK375's, you can never go wrong with those.

You're AWD so your options for lowering or raising are extremely limited. I think you might be able to lower it a few inches but you would not be able to raise it much if at all.

yes this is what ive heard..and has me at a stand still trying to deside which would be easyier.

what is the limiting factor, is it just the driveshaft? a good friend of mine makes custom driveshafts so thats not in issue then i could go 24s maybe and a 5/7ish drop...what im i missing

The U255's are everywhere(atleast around here in DFW) in black,chrome. They kinda look to me like a knockoff of the BOSS 330's to me.

Any of them will look good no doubt and I know what you mean by wanting a lip. I had the 330's on my old Sierra and coated them all black.
