Just found out from the dealer that I have to get 20" winter tires. The brakes are so big that the 17" OEM won''t fit!!!
I asked them to check cause one website said "must have 17" or larger", but one said "19" or larger!!!
Oh well, time to track down some take off 2008 SE 20''s!!!

Yeah, they called me NOW and said sh''d be ready by 5:45!!
One small problem though?? They said the lug bolts are too long to put the center cap on. So I have to get a set of shorter lug bolts.
Kinda weird as ALL the sites that sell these rims say there are NO MODIFICATIONS NEEDED FOR THE HUMMER H2??
So I''ll take some quick pics and post them after 2am CST , but remember, the center caps won''t be on YET!!!

Mis-communication!! It''s the LUG NUTS that are too long to put the center cap on!!!
Not a BIG DEAL, I just have to hunt down some shorter lugs Saturday!!!
Pics will be L8R as I''m at work NOW!!!
