Looks amazing! Good choice

That looks awesome!

Do you have enough miles on the truck that you can share (after a few weeks) what affect those wheels have on your range?

I also love the lettering inserts on the Charge door. I ordered the Lightning Blue 3D resin for my truck (when it eventually comes). Thank you for this picture, now I have a great idea how it will look on my Avalanche color.

Literally just installed them so I will be updating range impact.
There will be losses but it’s worth the looks

What are the wheel and tire specs?

Also, what's the noise like with the BFGs. Any louder?

Very very slight increase. But nothing the volume @10 won’t cover up

Is this just a wheel and tire swap and nothing else? Looks amazing.

Required a leveling kit. I went with a 2.3” leveling kit from Stage3Motorsports. Nice thing about their kit was it did not require a spring compressor to rotate the top hat. Bold on go! Highly recommend that kit if you want to level the lightning
