I used tinted vinyl and a heat gun over the amber lens. Has been on for a couple years and has not peeled at all. I'm very happy with it.

Max Tire size on a Stock Height 2015 2500HD

Good to hear. Will hopefully be doing that soon. It looks to be a pretty simple install. -

Just as a follow up to this topic, I decided on the 275/65/20 Duratracs. Since I do not have mudflaps, I can report that there is absolutely no rubbing whatsoever at full lock in drive or reverse with a bone stock suspension setup. I have not installed the drop shackles yet, but I am thinking about only dropping the rear one inch to leave some rake for when I do pull my travel trailer. Thanks again for everyone's input! -
Kicker Soundgate Upgrade

What's your price? I sent you a message earlier today. -
This is my first go around with a 2500 and the 6.0. It's a 2015 that I bought new in February of this year. This has become more noticeable (just now audibly) now that I have a Magnaflow muffler on the truck. When you are just cruising around maintaining speed, it seems like the RPMs surge in the 1500-1750 range, like the truck is lugging, or pulsing, or searching for a gear or something. If I give it more gas, it will downshift and feel fine. When it is doing the surging, it feels like it has no power, until like I said, you give it more gas and it downshifts. Is this a common occurrence with these motors and nothing to be concerned about or should I raise a question with the dealer?

What have you done to your K2 today?

You are supposed to use the mounting hardware from the old lights. Adjustment screw as well. I'm quite happy with mine. -
Fixes and tricks to deal with those annoyances

I'm not sure about the passenger side, I only did the driver side. I always wear my seat belt but have been forever in the habit of not clicking it until after I start my truck and that chime is insanely loud. As to why these trucks aren't like previous generations and do not chime until you are out of Park is beyond me. It's kinda hard to get to, you have to reach your hand between the seat and feel for the harness. It's a small wire coming out of the seat belt receiver, but it unplugs. Here is another thread detailing: http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/161422-seat-belt-dinger/ -

The door chime does not sound if the wiring harness is unplugged at the seat belt. -

Are you guys happy with the Duratracs? I had Nitto Trail Grapplers on my 08 1/2 ton, loved how they looked but don't know if I want to go that aggressive again. They rode kinda rough after a while too. -

If all you had to do was trim your front mudflaps (I don't have mudflaps) for the 275/65/20 Duratracs, I don't believe there would be any rubbing/trimming issues with the 285/60/20 Duratracs as they are about a half inch shorter and half inch wider than what you are running. Thank you for the replies. Any other input would be welcome as well. -
I'm seriously considering going the drop shackle route instead of a leveling kit to knock some of the rake out of my truck. However, before I do, I'd like to find out what size tire I can clear later on. I currently have the SR-A 265/60/20. I would be considering the Duratrac's in 285/60/20 (about and inch taller and wider that what I currently have) and possible the Nitto and Toyo MT selections in a similar size. I am pretty confident those sizes would clear but does anyone know for sure? Would I be able to go any taller or wider WITHOUT touching my torsion key bolts or trimming? I've been having trouble pinpointing this info on the forums. Also, I have no plans to change wheels so the current factory offset would remain the same.
