  1. it's all good. everyone has opinions. i like chrome/polished. also like black/machined. i don't really care for all black.
  2. to each is own. I don't particularly care for your wheels, but they're not mine
  3. help me choose wheels for my leveled white denali, which ones?
  4. had E rated on my sequoia, ride was fine. bfg kos in 285 are D rated. stiffer than P but should be fine
  5. do you think that size will clear on 0 offset wheels? going from 22s to 20s and a slightly larger tire, should improve my ride
  6. i have a white truck so will be posting pics here later. I have 2.25" level with new UCAs. Running stock 22s with 285/45-22 tires. My wheels rubbed the passenger liner stock. so I took the heat gun and remolded it a bit. Now with the level, I have plenty of clearance except I do occasionally rub the control arms. that happens at full lock in certain situations. I actually didn't know there was a rub until I looked and see evidence. So I need new wheels. The UCA manufacturer says I need at least +14 offset. Most wheels are either +18-20 or 0. The wheels I like the most only come in a 0 offset. The 0 offset will push the wheel out almost 1" from the stock +24 offset. If I go with the 0 offset wheel (9') wide, which tires should I run. 275/60-20 (33x11.5) or 285/55-20 (32.5x11.7)? I want to clear without rubbing or cutting. will both of these work?
  7. those are listed for a 2 wheel drive lowered truck... but they appear to be working on your 4 wd?
  8. would you mind posing what part number you used? thanks
  9. what is the offset of those factory wheels? are they 20x9s?
  10. even though you lengthened the rod for the Magneride, you should probably have a "trim height relearn" done anyway. the 22's with 45 profile tires ride like bricks, change those
  11. what size and offset are the Hostiles? what size tire? thanks
  12. I got the 2.25" Readylift level with upper control arms installed. I also used the 2" Rough Country magneride relocation bracket. Truck rides good, maybe just a tad stiffer than stock. I am going to have the dealer do a "trim height relearn" on the magneride just for good measure. I have the stock 22s with 285/45 tires. I have no rubbing. The tires are very close (1/8") from rubbing the control arms at full lock. I had already remolded the fender liner on the passenger side with a heat gun; tire was rubbing at stock height. Now I need wheels and tires. I want a 20" wheel. the styles I am looking at only come in 20x9 0 offset. RL says to use a +12 offset with their control arms. The stock wheels are 22x9 +24 offset. They don't rub. Many wheels come in a +18 or +20 offset, by deduction, they should clear since the +24s do. But, I don't want to be so close, hence the reason for the 0 offset. I am looking at running a 275/60-20 tire. Will that size tire clear with the 0 offset? If not, I may have to go back down to a 285/55. thanks
  13. thanks. how much clearance is between the uca and the coil? looks pretty close. how is the abs bracket attached to the uca? thanks
  14. can you post pics? I am curious how the brake line attaches to the arm. I think I am going to go with these thanks
  15. I'm just trying to get the best kit that addresses all the potential issues. Could you share pics of your kit installed? a-arm/ball joint angles, etc... thanks
  16. i understand not needing a recal with the brackets, but the Readylift kit does not have relocation brackets. Their kit has new upper control arms. I talked to them today and asked about the Magneride. They said the dealer will need to recalibrate the "trim height" by doing a "trim height relearn"
  17. mine is a brand new 2018. it has the 22x9 +24 offset wheels with 285/45-22 tires on it
  18. has anybody had ball joint issues with the new stamped steel control arms? suspension maxx says no issue, rough country will only sell a 2" kit because of them, ready lift sells a 2.25" kit with new control arms because of the issue. i didn't think it would be so difficult getting my truck leveled
  19. do you have pics? did you do the new control arm kit? what about the Magnaride? they say there kit just needs a dealer recalibration.
  20. i have the same wheels. do you think a 285/50-22 will clear the control arm?
  21. so leveling an '18 will cause the tires to rub the control arms?? I don't really see how spacing the coilover changes the geometry so much that the tire would rub the control arm. I can see the camber change, but that would be corrected with an alignment I have an '18 Denali and I need to get this up asap. I have the stock 22x9 +24 offset wheels.
  22. anymore details on this? what to do once the steps are removed? what actually stays on the truck? any codes or electrical issues when they are removed? thanks
