Replying to: swl1 (Feb 05, 2007 4:22 am) Only reason I bring it up is that 18's are the smallest stock size on the Denali/Escalade, and I am not sure if GM used different brakes on these compared to a Suburban or Yukon. |

I purchased a 07 Denali Yukon with the standard 18" wheels I want to upgrade them to the Denali GMC optional 20" wheels. I was down at my local GMC dealer and someone came up to me and suggested I do not change the wheels, claiming there is an issue with some sort of setting for the suspensions or something that needs to be re calibrated once the wheels are changed. Is this true? Has anyone upgraded their wheels and had to change some sort of setting?

We just purchased a 07 Yukon XL and replaced the standard wheels/tires with 22 inch rims. The TPMS is correctly reporting the new tire pressures, now in the Mid 40 PSI range which is normal for these new tires. The old pressure range is around 30 psi on the placard. The question is everytime the ignition is turned on, we get a "Check Tire Pressure" message on the DIC. The pressures are around 42-45 PSI. Is this caused by the higher tire pressure? Anyone else experince this? Thanks |

Replying to: ggmm99 (May 02, 2007 11:09 pm) However, what may be triggering the message is the pressure sensor in each of the tires. Each may have a preset pressure range (i.e. 28 to 38 PSI), any reading above or below that threshold will cause the message to display. You may want to test that by lowering "all 4 tires" pressure to say 32-PSI and see if the message will go away...

| Does anyone where I can get the specs for the stock rims on an 02 Denali? I am considering replacing the stock 17" rims with 22s and would like to match the offset as closely as possible on the new rim (after accounting for the tire width increase -- looking at going to 305s from the stock 265s. | |
| Another question: in plus-sizing my wheels, a 40 profile on a 22 (e.g., 305/40/22) is exactly the same diameter as my stock 265/70/17s, but I am concerned about ride quality and durability on such a fitment. I know a 305/45/22 would ride better, but it's a slightly larger diameter than stock, about 1.2" or 3.2%, and I've read that fitments deviating >3% from the stock diameter could cause problems with wear of steering parts, brakes, etc. Any advice in this area? | |
