ya, i've seen the escalade. That avi COULD lay, but as you said, its going to take a fair amount of work. If it were me I'd just put it on 22's and have it lay as is.

24s and the rides not bad, 26s and its pretty rough. Weve done a few of both. you MUST upgrade brakes. At least do the Baer oversized rotor kit, if not a full big brake kit

I have 20s, and my braking is fine. However I do like the Baer + 1 rotor kit because it would improve braking, plus look sweet. Is it hard to install?

the baer +1 rotors with the caliper hardware is actually a very simple install. Great mod for the price.
