SilveradoSaver's Build


SilveradoSaver

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

 

Thought I’d start a build thread for my 2015 Silverado 1500 LT Crew Cab Standard Box (5.3 L) 4x4. Been my dream vehicle since I was a kid and finally owning one is a great feeling! I've quickly learned that these mods can get out of control though, but I’m sure you all know that!

 

Here are the following modifications I have done on my truck so far:

 

· 2" Zone leveling kit

· Upgraded from 18" to 20" wheels (Matte black Rockstar 2 XD 811)

· Goodyear Duratrac 275/60R20 tires

· BakFlip G2 tonneau cover

· Smittybilt Receiver Hitch D-Ring

· Rigid Industries SR-M2 fog lights (x 4)

· Rigid Industries D-Series lights behind the grill (x 4)

· Enthuze LED headlights (high and low beams)

· Swapped out license plate lights, cargo lights, and third-brake lights with Philips LED bulbs

· AFE Magnum Force Stage-2 Pro 5R cold air intake system

· Borla S-type cat-back exhaust (side exit)

· Added GM 3" black powder coated nerf bars (GM part #23194635)

· Gatorback oversized custom fit mud flaps

· De-badged all wording from doors and tailgate, including “4x4” decals

· Plastidipped front and rear bowties matte black

· Hood and tail gate vinyl wrapped with matte black rally stripes with pin-stripe outline

· Installed driver side assist handle

· Weathertech precise fit floor mats (front and back)

· Blackvue 1080P DR650GW-1CH dash camera

 

Here is my truck on day 1 when I picked it up; fully stock:

Nice truck dude, what offset are the rims, I'm currently trading a 2014 Sierra for a 2017 Silverado and swapping the factory 18" wheels for some KMC XD829 Hoss 2 wheels and went with 0mm offset as others have noted the stock are like 24mm offset, so only bringing them out like 24mm should be perfect, also how are you liking the Weathertechs, I'm doing full front and back as well.

Thanks man. The rims are whatever the factory offset is or pretty darn close (don't recall off the top of my head).

NP, I was just worried of tires stickin way out haha, but a few here have assured me I should be good at 0mm, I do like those running boards much better than the 6" oval chrome ones that are on the truck now, but I'm sure the wife and kid will like the big step but as much as i know it will be functional it's kind of ugly haha

Honestly, the steps on my new black nerf bars are basically the same size as my old chrome runs. I never stepped on the chrome parts before, only on the black pads. These ones are perfect and look much better IMO.
