Hey guys,
Most of you won't remember me as it's been a few years since I sold my GV. Well I missed it so much I got a nother one.....well......kind of. I just got a 2002 XL-7. Anyway, Here is a pic of my old GV, some of you may remember. Running 245/75/16's (about 31's) in the pic. 2" body and 1.5" suspension lift.



Here are a couple of pics of the GV with 275/75/16's (about 32's)




Soon the XL will get simmilar treatment.

that had wheel spacers didn't it? I'm running the same size tire on a 2 inch suspesion lift with no body lift and for some reason, they look bigger on that gv than mine. I didn't have to trim my front flares or the back of the bottom runner so much either... guessing you had to do that because of the wheel spacers. my tires do rub, but I don't care much since it's not my wheeling rig.


I really dig the headlights and grille on that rig.

Hey guys, it took a lot of trimming, and you can almost stuff them. I'll have to find more pics. I plan to run the same size tires on the XL7 with only about 1.5" of suspension lift. I'll take pics as I'll have to shave down the fenderwell to be able to do it. And yes the GV ad 1.5" wheel spacers all around. I took the headlights apart and painted them black :) Looked a lot better.
