wow, tough crowd.
Maybe i should start a little slower (too much reading? should i add pictures?)
What do you think of these wheels on a 2019 Sierra, white. Going to do a level and 35's. Any photoshop wizards out there?
Alright my friends, heres what I need help with:
Picking up a 2019 Sierra SLT 4x4 from my work (area manager who drives ALL highway - no joke) and my goals are:
-paint or wrap the chrome parts (what do you think would be best?)
-add 22" rims (OEM replicas - like the AT4s but in 22's)
-35x12.5 tires (have always had Toyo MTs but may go for the Nitto AT's this time)
-2-3" leveling kit (depending on how the truck sits now) - any brand preference? always had good luck with RC but heard other brands may be better.
-has jump seat and need to convert that to the center console - any idea where to snag one?
basically work my way to making it look similar to an AT4.
We'll start there.
the offset is what's the issue (as far as cutting - because those wheels look awesome).
My '14, I had a 6 inch RC with 22's -44 running 35's. Had to cut a pretty good chunk where the mud flap would go, angle out the front valance, and zip tie the wheel well liners
I've had it back since Friday and haven't cut a single piece, nor tied any liners yet. No rubbing at all. Haven't tried full lock in reverse, but have been off road (went camping - so call it what you will, lol) and no problems.
I was fairly confident (with the countless research hours) this set up would work. So far so good.
Here is the front... had the bumpers, grille, and GMC logo done. On the grille, only the surround was supposed to be done, but they accidentally did the entire thing. I actually like it better.
that's probably smart. They do make a film that 80% (I wouldn't even consider it tint - and no one would notice) that helps with heat and UV. Might be worth looking into since Dallas gets pretty warm.
Nope, its not legal. Another reason I go with 55% is its almost 'get-away-able'.
If law enforcement in your area isn't too picky about it, I would go for it, obviously at your own risk. I definitely wouldn't suggest anything less than 35%...
5% all around and 35% windshield tint would be SUPER dark.
Lol, that would be hilarious... (but I think you meant 0%? -- 200% is no tint at all). My sister did an 80% windshield tint and its almost a clear film.
Whole thing. 55% from top to bottom. Have done it on all my vehicles and love it. Its not too dark where it makes it hard to see at night but just enough to keep the heat down and sun from burning your eyeballs out during the day.

Items completed:
- 18% front window tint
- 55% windshield tint
- Black vinyl wrap on b-pillar
- Dark smoke tail lights
- Light smoke headlights, fog lights, and third brake
- Havoc side steps
Items being completed next week:
- Zone 4.5" lift
- Fox 2.0 rear shocks
- 35x12.5r22 Toyo MT's
- Color match front and rear bumpers
- Color match grille surround
- Color match 'GMC' logo (red part)
- Update my GM-Trucks signature line
Items being pondered:
- CAI
- MBRP exhaust
- Tune
- Fox 2.0 coilovers
I think it drives the same. A little slow on take off but the tires are a lot heavier. I'll have a tune done and it'll fix a lot of the issues. The 3.08 gears should do just fine.

Absolutely. The RC rear shocks are not very good and since the truck has a lot of miles I decided to do the struts too. I think it rides better than stock. Even had a friend ride with me and he thought it rides better than my Infiniti. Thanks! I think the 22's are great.
