About the GMC Envoy

A corporate twin of the Chevrolet TrailBlazer, the Envoy nameplate dates back to 1998 when GMC introduced a gussied-up version of its standard Jimmy sport-ute to appeal to buyers looking for an upscale ride. Even with a strong V6 and options aplenty, however, the first Envoy was totally outclassed by its competition. The Jimmy name was dropped in 2002, and the Envoy became GMC's only midsize sport-ute. That was also the year the Envoy received an extensive redesign. It now comes to the table with specifications and features that allow it to compete more favorably against its arch rival, the Ford Explorer (also fully redesigned in 2002). A longer and wider body gives the Envoy a substantial look, while providing considerably more room for passengers and cargo inside. Its frame structure utilizes advanced hydroforming technology that achieves stiffness levels typically associated only with high-end sedans. The current Envoy represents a vast improvement over its predecessor, but ultimately, it doesn't measure up to competitors such as the Ford Explorer, Toyota 4Runner or Nissan Pathfinder. While its handsome exterior and roomy interior may attract consumers, GMC needs to come up with a better compromise between cushy ride quality and confident handling; specifically, it should lose some of the former to gain some of the latter. The company also needs to take a look at the materials used inside the cabin -- too many of them are of dubious quality for a vehicle in this price range. The midsize SUV class is populated with extremely capable vehicles, and unfortunately, the Envoy has yet to prove that it's got what it takes to overtake the segment leaders. The Envoy's sloppy handling characteristics, low-grade interior bits and low frontal offset crash test score prevent us from recommending this truck over class leaders.



We strive to continually bring you the largest selection of custom wheels and discount tires in the nation at the lowest prices. Not only do we offer award-winning customer service but we also have a skilled staff of technicians waiting to serve you with your custom wheel purchase. Our warehouses sell our rims at savings up to 70% off of list prices and 30% less than our retail outlets. You can rest assured knowing that all wheel and tire package fitments are verified with our technicians before ever leaving our warehouse. Unless your car has been modified, all fitments are calculated off of the stock specifications set forth for your vehicle. We use plus-sizing techniques to match up your new wheels to stay as close to factory stock heights. In laymen\'s terms, you wheel gets bigger and your tire gets smaller. If you are hesitant about a wheel and tire package purchase, allow us to mount and balance the set and deliver it to your door ready to be installed onto your vehicle. We use state-of -the-art hunter mounting and balancing equipment. When mounting we use chrome valve-stems, stick-on weights, and road-force balancing equipment. We shrink-wrap and package the aftermarket wheels thoroughly for shipping. All wheels and tires are insured during transit. If you are ordering wheel spinner adaptors, they are generally shipped separately from the wheel for safety reasons. While we rely on our repeat business from satisfied customers, we are always looking for new customers to add to our growing wheel clientele. Do not settle for one of these fly-by-night companies on the internet that will nott be able to promise what they deliver or provide service to you after the sale because they are no longer around. We have been around for years and we plan on being around for many more years to serve our customers. Just give us a call on our toll-free number!!
