I have Rough Country leveling keys and shock spacers. The tires are 35x11.5x20 Nitto ridge grapplers.

They measure 34.6x11.5

Sweet. I didn't realize they made that size. That's perfect for a leveled truck. Some guys are able to run a 35x12.50" tire, but some are having to trim the fender liner or they're rubbing the UCA.

Yes the 11.5 is perfect. No trimming needed.

This is the exact look I'm going for on my 2017 2500 Denali. Did you just crank up all the way or how many turns? Notice any ride difference? When you crank do you need to get wheel alignment done? Notice in cupping or wear issues on the tires with this setup. Thanks from another Calgary area resident! Cheers

Should meet for a Tim's [emoji6] I went 8 turns. Make sure to have the front end off the ground ( you want no weight on the front suspension) definitely need an alignment done after. I'd say ride is better as the suspension is no longer riding on the lower bump stop all the time. No cupping or abnormal wear, but I definitely keep up on rotating the tires.

Cranked to 2.5" ,

removed the front valance,

peeled back the fender liner and pinned back the pinch weld to increase the space at the rear of the fender

trimmed about 1" off the bottom of the front of the fender liner

 

Wheels are MKW 20x9 +10 offset

Tires are Toyo AT II 35 12.5 R20

Leveled the 2010 GMC and the upper a arm started to bottom out and hit the rubber bumpers as the bushing began to wear. On the 16 plan to keep it as level as I can without a kit. The upper a arms aftermarket void my warranty.

 

Voided what part of your warranty?
