  1. You'd know if it was an issue, by 30km/hr it felt like you were permanently going over rumble strips but without the noise.
  2. Well as it turns out my vibration wasn't defective wheels, it was 4 defective Toyo AT2s. Apparently they've had the problem enough lately with the 275/60-20 size that the rep didn't want them replaced with Toyo's. My next choice wasn't available either, so my next next choice was to try out the Falken Wildpeak AT3W. They run virtually the same height as the Toyo's, so a touch taller than the BFG's. But are virtually the same width as the BFG's, so a touch narrower than the Toyo's. For the price I got them for I'll run them for awhile and replace them if I don't like them, but the first 200kms have been good so far. Don't really hear them, so quieter than the Duratracs. And definitely look more aggressive than the Toyo's. Full setup info again: 1.5" front level only RTX Ridgeline 20x9, +15, w/ Enkei caps Falken Wildpeak AT3W, 275/60-20 Excuse the one side pic's terrible quality
  3. I meant the cheaper spacers are the lower strut type. Other than RC, most are aluminum. Neither the alum or the poly type will likely ever fail. Could use a stack of washers and still not likely ever see it fail. (NO, I am NOT recommending that)
  4. Haven't found out yet. But I'm in Edmonton Alberta, so I'll find out eventually.
  5. Closest thing to a side profile I have right now, gives a good idea. Toyo AT2
  6. A lot of guys running 275/65-20's (34") with the 2.5 levels. Can't confirm clearance myself though. As for offset, my 20's are 20x9" +15 offset, and with the 275/60-20 (33") they are as close to flush as you're going to get. The rear sidewall is about 1/4" or less inside, the front is 1/4" or less outside.
  7. Only thing I could see happening on my Revolver is the vinyl wearing out where the tailgate rubs going up and down on, but it's still a better seal type than the Roll X. That being said, I had my Roll X on my 11 for 4 years with zero issues even after slamming into the latch lever and bending the crap out of it a couple times.
  8. Haven't had them on long enough to notice as they're just temporary and a possible winter setup, but I have zero doubt it would be an issue, plenty of room. Had those on my stock height '11 All Terrain with no rub. Actual specs are 17x8.5, +25.
  9. IMO for color Gun Metal looks amazing on the blue. As for design, that all depends whether you like a "busier" style or a simple one.
  10. Yes. That will fit stock. These are 285/70-17 on a stock offset wheel with 1.5" lift.
  11. No pictures, and can't take them right now as had to send the wheels back for a defect. Zero rubbing. Looks like there might be room for a 275/65/20 with some rubbing on the inner fender. The rears were almost exactly flush with the outside of the fender, on the front the sidewall bulge of the tire stuck out about 1/4" past the edge. Closest pics I have to show it. And since the new wheels are out, put my old wheels on it for now. 17x8.5", +25, Well worn 285/70-17 Nitto's.
  12. It was only 10 hours old in those pics! Lol. Chrome strip I'm still debating as it kind of goes with the chrome bars in the grill right now, eventually they will both be gone. And yeah, that Z71 decal just doesn't look like it belongs on the red. And thank you, I love it. Keep staring at it like a new girlfriend.
  13. RC is a small resin "clip" spacer installed on the bottom of the strut. The cheaper levels are usually this type but aluminum. Pro Comp and Readylift are billet spacer rings that mount on top of the strut. Bilsteins are a whole new strut with adjust-ability of height.
  14. Yes. That is exactly what their 1.5" level is, just the upper spacer. Brought mine up around 1.75".
  15. Pro Comp 1.5" level RTX Ridgelines w/Enkei center caps, 20x9, +15 Toyo AT3 275/60-20 Corsa Black (Actually black chrome) Bak Revolver X2
  16. The graphite would look amazing on blue!
  17. Tread pattern also has an impact as rolling resistance increases with greater tread void and construction. Comparing anything to the SRA's (which are designed as a highway tire) will likely show a decrease in mileage.
  18. This is virtually identical to what I'll have in 7 more weeks. Any more pics since the blackouts? LOVE it!
