  3. Thankss!! They are super quiet on the highway, which was a big deal to me. I got all 4 for just over $600 installed at Sam's
  4. Thanks!! The truck is black, the lighting gives it that teal/green color
  5. My 2016 Sierra after level and tires. Went with the Bilstein 5100s (1.85" level), and 275/60r20 Goodyear Wrangler Trailrunner ATs, stock SLT Premium Plus wheels. Love the setup so far, ride is 10 times better, absolutely zero rubbing, no noticeable MPG loss (these trailrunners are the same weight as the stock tires). I think it looks perfect, it gives the truck a real "OEM+" look.

  7. Thanks! That's encouraging. Going with the lightweight 33s does feel like settling, and having a tougher tire for similar price seems like it worth it. And I can live with a slight mpg loss. Nice looking truck!
  8. For reference, here are two leveled trucks with either setup. 33s: 34s: I just think the 34s look a lot better and really fill in the wheel wells.
  9. Hey guys, I know there are about a million different topics about tires but I haven't found an exact answer after days of research. I just picked up a 16 Sierra 1500 Z71 5.3L (Pictured below). This is my daily driver and MPGs are semi important, but I also didn't buy a truck because of its great fuel economy. I come from an old Grand Cherokee with a 5.7 Hemi. I am planning on adding a 2-inch leveling kit, mainly for looks, and to have more clearance in the front. From what I've researched, by two best tire options with the stock wheels are 275/60r20 and 275/65r20. 33s and 34s respectively. Most people report no rubbing with either setup. Honestly I just love the look of the 34s way more and they are not that much more price-wise, but they are all E-rated LT and all weight about 15-20lbs more than their 33 counterpart. The most towing I see myself doing is a 6x12 Uhaul and a small 18ft. boat, but I do take my trucks offroading/overlanding and in the snow quite a bit. I also do a lot of highway driving. In reality, I would only gain 0.5" of extra clearance with the 34s, and I am concerned about how much the extra weight will affect my truck's performance, especially with the 5.3. Is there any reason why I should pick the E-rated LT 34s over the lightweight 33s, other than the fact that they look awesome? Could a tuner make up some of the MPG loss? Some report a better ride from E-rated tires, and treads are deeper as well. Thanks!!
  10. Just picked up a 2016 Sierra 1500 Z71 Premium Plus. Only 23k on the clock! Excited to start posting here and doing some mods. Here's a pic I took of it:
