Wow that body colored front end looks excellent! They should all be like that.

They do sit high, for sure. One questions though for the guys that have already dropped them, a 5/7 drop with no mods? On my truck (which has the 20's and Z60 susp) there is a 5" gap in the front and 8.5" in the back (+another 2" up inside the opening) so there would be NO travel left on my front tires before they hit the wheelhouse. How does that work?? Did you guys pull/mod the wheel house?

I know the Z60 is supposed to sit a touch lower than other susp options, but it can't be 2 inches lower. You need SOME suspension travel...

it appears GM reduced the intrusion into the box and cab area by the wheelhouses and raised the whole thing to compensate.

Would love to see pics (not chops) of these drops....

I am seeing a few more of these 07's running around now, they do look good and the driving experience is excellent.
