Was looking through some old pictures of my truck and came across this pic.. i took the truck one night to my garage and jacked it up to see what it would look like with the 3 inch skyjacker lift kit installed... could only get it to 2.5 inches above stock before the tires started coming off the ground so its not exactly as high as a 3inch lift but righ around the area.. everytime i see this pic i think it looks sick.. just wondering what you guys think.. in the pic i only have the chrome 22inch rims.. also posted is a pic of my 20 inch winter wheels iwth th off road style tires.. what do you guys think.. i always liked the look of the 6inch CST lift but think that would be too high for me even though it looks sick... also posted a pic of the CST lift kit..

interesting....hell, i don't even see them look like that down here in Tennessee. it's a little neck dont ya think?

The lifted look on any Escalade is different, but I like the lowered look more

lower it....

yea i have it lowered now using a ground force kit.. 2 in the frotn and 3 in the rear.. just always liked the look of lifted trucks.. and i have to admit that the escalade does look bada$$ lifted.. well only the EXT version.. the regular escalade doesnt look great lifted.. just wanted some kind of change.. the lowered ride is not horrible but its not great around my area.. already had to go into the dealership and hear about how bad it is to lower a car and how much added stress i am putting on it.. nevermind the fact that i had to get a bunch of the suspension parts replaced which they warrantied but said that it was probably due to the stress the lowering kit puts on the car.. but supposedly a lift kit doesnt put that kind of stress.. but that is a whole other story.. i was mostly looking for something different.. everyone these days has one of these trucks and most either lower or keep it stock.. figured a lift would be something unique that not many people do.. and as you can see in the pic it looks bada$$... gonna have to way out my options.. i mean i like to take turns pretty tight sometimes.. not sure how great that would be with a lift but then again its just a minor lift so idk.. will have to see.. not planning on anything too soon....

I think it would look bad ass with the black rims! Definitely different, and in the end, it doesn't matter what anyone thinks but you.

If a OEM setup can roll with a good tug of the wheel, then a lifted truck will 100% roll.

If you decide to lift if, I would start to change your driving habits now so that you are use to it by the time you do lift it.

BTY.....those chrome rims are Foose Heats, arnt they?

yea.. im mean im not taking corners at 100mph or anything.. sometimes i make tight turns... but not often so i wouldnt have to change my driving habits all that much.. in reality you can roll any car.. sure its easier when its lifted but we'll see.. not sure on what i am going to do.. gonna weigh all the options and see what to do...

as for the wheels they are actually made by vogue... they are very similar to the foose spank 6 if you are referring to the chrome 22's in the top pic.. the chrome wheels on the lifted truck i believe are lexani's...

vouge huh.....they reminded me of my 22" foose heats

I think that I love your garage in the first picture. Lol I want one like that!

times 2!

times 2!

x3.... how much do you pay in rent if you dont mind me asking? and how many square feet do you get? I been in the market for a place like that and cant find one for a good deal. The best deal I found so far was $1500 month for 1000 square feet (rent in NY is ridiculous!) ..... but its tooo far

thanks for the garage comps.. yea its my little home away from home lol.. no rent though.. my father owns a towing company and has a storage yard and there was building next door that used to be a meatball company or something.. guy went out of business so my dad bought it and knocked some walls out and well there you have it.. ill try and find some more pics.. thats only 1 section.. it has an office, 3 bathrooms, 3 "storage" rooms as i call em and for the good stuff it has every tool you could want.. full air compressor.. 2 lifts.. and a whole lot of room.. if you pack the whole place with cars i would say you could probably fit a good 11-12 cars in there.. i just love it because its so nice to be able to start an install and be able to stop and leave everything out and not have to worry about someone coming by and doing something to your ride or taking anything.. here are some other pics of the lift.. one from the other side of the car so you can see sorta of the space behind it going in the other direction.. ill take some more pics but trust me the place is huge and my father barely uses it.. it really only holds his 87 Iroc and his first car which was a GTO.. other than that its pretty empty.. lets us use it whenever we want so its pretty sweet.. but now that you guys got me posting more pics of the lift i have to admit its looking nicer and nicer each time i see it.. maybe that might be the next project..

You need to add this to my garages thread I started! That sounds insane! So jealous.

Dam, wish I ad a garage with a lift :crying2:

I personally would not lift or lower, I think the escalades look the best stock with 22s. Just my .02,
