Check Out This Chevy Suburban Z71 Riding On Ferrada Forge-8 FTR11 Wheels

A series of new images have hit social media showing a Chevy Suburban Z71 rolling on an eye-catching set of Ferrada Forge-8 FTR11 wheels.

This particular Suburban is an example of the pre-refresh twelfth-generation, offering up a blend of off-roader cues and custom style.

At first glance, it’s obvious that this custom Chevy Suburban leans heavily on the black-out color theme. The Black (paint code GBA) exterior is deep and reflective, amplifying the SUV’s size and presence. Up front, we see a blacked-out grille with the Chevy bowtie badge ringed in silver, highlighted by a Z71-specific skid plate and red recovery hooks. The hoodline is clean, flowing into a raked windshield crowned by a red “FERRADA” banner that pops against the otherwise monochrome exterior.

Moving along the sides, the SUV sits on a set of 22×10-inch Ferrada Forge-8 FTR11 wheels, finished in Obsidian Black. The multi-spoke design is technical and aggressive, wrapped in chunky Nitto all-terrain tires. The wheels fill the wheel wells nicely and add to the lifted stance. Black running boards and mirror caps complement the blackout theme, while Z71 badging sits proudly on the front fender.

As for the factory foundation, the pre-refresh twelfth-generation Suburban Z71 is equipped with a long list of gear tailored for the local trails, including standard four-wheel-drive, a high-approach angle front fascia, and 20-inch machined aluminum wheels wrapped in 20-inch all-terrain tires. Customers can also opt for the Off-Road Capability package and Z71 Off-Road Package for even more off-roader goodies, such as Adaptive Air Ride suspension with Magnetic Ride Control and an electronic limited-slip differential.
