Post up some pics when you get them installed....I'm glad you will have some rubber between your rims & the road for a while.
Just don't waste the tread by Burning out too much....that is what AutoX is for !
Hey Blue....I think somebody was looking for you the other day ???
Yea the denali looks really good stock for stock. We had a special addition navi that had all the crome taken off the sides and back of the gator. Only crome front and rims. Looks way better than our Denali now, even though the Denali looks really good sitting on those 24's
That's big even for a Denali....I wouldn't want to go bigger than a 22" on a ride like that....it will ride bumpy. You still need some side wall to help the suspension.

What kind of business are you in....and who is doing your tax returns ?
At your age....you should not have to pay anything !
------
I always am glad to see a + or - $500 in the box. If your over or under that amount.... you need to adjust your dependents or get more tax deductions.
Try all the CCA donations and or Cancer pledges....these can add up to a lot of savings for unwanted items.

I would love to have a collection like Jay Leno's.....and his bike collection also.
I would see him from time to time in LA & at the Rock Store in Malibu. He would have some great rides.

the manager at discount was trying to tell me that I couldn't put those wheels on my car cuz they wouldn't fit then tried to argue with me like I didn't know anything when I told him they would. Hell Jake has them on his car the only difference is mine are 17" and his are 18" and I just don't see how that would really affect anything. I called Jason and talked with him about it just to be safe though and he was like dude just buy the wheels cuz they will definately fit. I just don't understand how, according to discount, the weapons in 17X9 in +17 offsets will fit fine but the battles in 17X9.5 in +15 offset won't. There's not much of a difference there. Whatever, worst comes to worst, I'll sell the wheels and just buy weapons. I would think I can get at least $500 for a brand new set of battles so I wouldn't be out much cash but I'm not too worried about that because I trust jason's word when it comes to anything pertaining to the z.

Oh dog.... that is a dream for me. Grew up.around horses every Summer at my cousins. She boarded them and one of her boarders would go on vacation and he would leave his horse in my care for 4 weeks. It was so awesome.

Comparing the 9" wide wheel with +17 offset and the 9.5" wide wheel with +15, the latter will extend out an extra 8mm. They have computers that have the stock wheel size and offset and it probably tells them that only XXX in this/that direction will fit, which is a generic answer that will be safe to tell the general public.
Tire Rack does worse ****. If you tell them what car you have and order 2 different pairs of tires, they won't even sell them to you because it's "unsafe," no matter how much you argue or whether you're spending your money or not. While technically, they're correct that different brands use different compounds so the handling will be affected, that's almost negligible for most people and in most settings. They keep all that **** recorded on their computers, too. Tried to order with a different rep and found out the hard way. I had to order from a different number without telling them what car they were going on to get the tires I wanted. If you don't tell them what car the tires will go on, they assume the 2 pairs will be for different cars or something.

According to Nitto, the nt05 has 38% more cornering force and 34% more lateral stiffness than the nt555. So we shall see. Of course the compound is a 200 treadwear rating compared to the nt555's 300 treadwear rating.

I know that all the years I was single and claiming "0" with a moderate income I would get around 1,500 or so back. Then I let a tax person prepare my return and it quadrupled.
