Just installed H2 wheels and Duratracs for a trip coming up in July.

285/70/17?
I’m debating doing the same wheel and tire size combo.
Haven’t decided on the actual tire. But that combo looks real good on the suburban.

Nice job.

Yes, 285’s. I almost went to a 295, but got a great deal on these.

Sold my original alloys with Michelin’s within 30min of posting them. Unfortunately the guy also wanted the center caps, so I put the H2’s on temporally. Kinda like this look too. I found a set of chrome H2 caps w/o the hummer logo, so I may go that route.

Looks really good! Those H2 rims are very good rims made by Alcoa. I have seen people use all different types of center caps on them. You got a great deal, I would have bought them for that. I had a set bored to clear dodge hubs and should have never sold them.

I always wanted to get a set of those for my 05, but never did. It’s one of the stock rims that were done right.

They’re factory. They’re heated and have the indicators in them. I’ve thought about switching them out for the later model mirrors.
Factory on a Sub? Arent they tow mirrors off a heavy pickup? Neither of our Z71/Tow-package-equipped 05 Tahoe or '02 Sub came with those mirrors.

Looks good. That's a Ranch Hand bumper / grill guard, is it not? How do you like it? The weight any impact on ride etc?

Alcoa makes cast wheels? I own a set of chrome H2s and there are no Alcoa markings on them. The chrome on these are terrible. Keep brake dust off them
A set of h2 rims I had, I believe they were from when the h2 came out, it had an Alcoa stamp on the back of them.

I believe he’s implying factory from gm. Not necessarily the suburban. Those are factory equipment on 06-07 HD pickups. They bolt in on the suburban and if options are similar the wiring is plug and play too. I have a set on my 04 Yukon from an 06 Silverado 3500.
