  1. The Chevrolet Accessory website lists a black grille available for the Silverado HD’s. I’m wondering if it’s a gloss black painted grille or is it a matte finish like the WT and Custom package trucks come with, has anyone ever seen one?
  2. Good point! I forgot that some GM wheels have that pocket that will let you use wheel spacers less than 1.25", my 20's did not have the pockets.
  3. 1.75" is the minimum on GM trucks to not have to cut studs. As I recall with my tire size of 275/60r20 and my Bushwacker Flares my tires were flush with the flare and stuck out with the Flares obviously but not much, my Flares only extended .75" I think.
  4. I've since sold the truck and don't have any pictures of it like you wanted. Sorry.
  5. Thanks, It has 275/60/20 BFG KO2's and I used a Top Gun Customz 2.5" leveling kit and a Zone add-a-leaf with the standard block. I have since added a 1.5" body lift from Zone and 1.75" wheel spacers. If you do the leaf get some with the rubber pads on each end so they don't squeak, mine don't have them and they squeak. I can't hear it with the windows up but notice it at low speed with windows down. I have a thread on the 'Vehicle Builds' section of the forum that at has similar pics at each mod.
  6. I have the BORA 1.75" on front and rear of mine with no issues. I've ran spacers on 3 other trucks in the past and as long as they were hub centric I had no issues, the first set I had was not and they did shimmy at highway speeds.
  7. Looks great, I'd like to see more pics of that wrapped bumper to see how well it matches outside. Been thinking of this myself.
  8. They do look skinny. When I need tires I'll probably go wider, I didn't the first time because the wider 20" tires are substantially higher priced. I will go wider next time or get 17 or 18" wheels to get into wider tires that are cheaper There is another thread going titled 'Stock wheels on lifted trucks' I think, that I posted some pics on from the front and rear.
  9. I painted them but I think they can be ordered pre painted now.
  10. I'll get some true straight on shots tomorrow. I had these on my phone. I did not have to trim my wheel studs. The factory studs stick out 1.75" so to avoid trimming the original studs you'll need the 1.75" spacers, some of the OEM wheels have a pocket on the backside mating surface that will allow you to use 1.50" spacers I've heard but mine didn't have them.
  11. Note: I do have 1.75" wheel spacers
  12. I had BFG KO2 275/60/20's put on my truck the day it arrived at the dealership and ran them for about 4 weeks before I put my 2.5 Level kit on and never had any issue with it rubbing the fender liner or suspension parts on the stock suspension setup.
  13. I've done paint work for 15 years now and it's not unheard of for a car to have a incorrect paint code on the factory data sticker regardless of brand but I've seen it more on GM vehicles for some reason.
  14. Looks good, How much lift do you have on your truck and how tall are your tires? Thanks.
  15. I can't tell any difference in ride from when it was stock except for the D range tires, than what it is now. I had the tires put on it before I took delivery of it.
  16. Mdrew, they never rubbed but I only had it about a week before I did the leveling kit so no off road but they had quite a bit of clearance. I wanted to go bigger but felt these were a good compromise because I didn't want bigger tires to rub or effect the gearing and shifting too much. It seemed like it was pretty hit and miss if they will rub somewhere with bigger tires based on reading this forum. If I do the body lift, I will probably do some wheel spacers and flares to balance it out. Also haven't ruled out getting some 17 or 18" anthracite Fuel Anzas to get a wider stance. I like the quality of OEM wheels though, I see a lot of aftermarket wheels that don't age very well.
  17. 2015 LTZ 6.2 2.5" TGC level, Zone add-a-leaf, 275/60/20 BFG KO2's. Have 1.5" Zone body lift for it too but haven't decided if I want to install it yet. If I do I might add some wheel spacers and smooth fender flares too to balance it out.
  18. Add-a-Leaf was from Zone. I like having some rake in the truck for towing and hauling, it didn't affect the ride that I could tell either.
  19. Same truck with 2.5" leveling kit and single add-a-leaf: Still have a Zone 1.5" body lift for it too, haven't decided for sure if I want to put it on or not.
  20. Same truck with 2.5" leveling kit:
