That looks really good. I have pretty much the same truck but am waiting for the original tires to wear out before upsizing tires. What wheels are those? They don't look like my factory rims. Any rubbing noticed?

factory 18"s, and it rubs the mud flap ever so slighty, at full lock in reverse on a hill, this is just not enough to worry about.

You've done exactly what I have been thinking about doing and I think it looks great. I like the wheels on this truck, just not the way it looks with the factory tires. You mention that the pics are of 35x11.50. Are they 285/70/18's? My calcs show the 285 as measuring 33.71". Don't get me wrong, I think it looks great, I just want to understand what you have. I have already leveled it, so I am now shooting for the look you have achieved. Thank you!

My truck has the factory 17 inch wheels...that puts my max size at 285/70 but on a 17" wheel. There's a couple tires out there at 285/75 but the choices are slim. I like your 18's a lot better.

Are those an Xtreme model or the regular AT2? Any chance you could post a closer up shot of the sidewall if its the non-Xtreme? Apparently the side tread on the Xtreme's is taller.

That does help, thank you. After I posted, I looked on some of the tire sites and they listed it is a 35x11.50. I am not sure why the tire calculators don't agree. Thanks again and nice job!

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By JimCost2014 · Posted

      If what you are doing works, keep doing it:   4LO (Four-Wheel Drive Low) should only be used in extreme low-speed, high-torque situations such as deep mud, heavy snow, steep rock crawling, or extreme inclines/declines, and you must follow the correct engagement procedure to avoid drivetrain damage. Intended Use Cases Deep mud or snow where traction is extremely poor and you need maximum torque to get unstuck Trucks Only+1. Rock crawling on steep, uneven terrain forum.fullsizechevy.com+1. Extreme inclines or declines where you need to control speed and maintain traction solutionsphere.blog. Heavy towing in low-traction conditions (e.g., deep sand, ice) carclubsusa.com.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By rdonarski · Posted

      Hi,   I work a steep boat landing that has patchy blacktop going down the hill and soft sand/gravel at the bottom. Due to low water levels, it's not always possible reach the blacktop. I've had to help several people get out this year already and with fall coming, I'm anticipating more. I always use 4L. There was a gentleman there today with a 2500 HD (actually 2 - him and his son both have them) and they were trying to get his son's wake boat out. This gentleman swears that you should use 4H in the soft gravel. Says he was a farmer and you always use higher gear when stuck. I was wonder what your thoughts on this are? If I'm wrong, it would be good to find out before things get busy.

      Roll up bed cover experiences

      By Bill Lemmond · Posted

      Looking for feedback from users of roll up aluminum slat bed covers who have had it for more than 3 years. I prefer the aluminum slat style over supported vinyl covers due to security and the capacity to support a light load. The slight loss of bed opening when rolled up is not an issue. Presently have BAK Revolver the "industrial grade vinyl overlay" on mine is shrinking & coming loose at the rear and on both sides in addition to cracking at some of the folding joints. Truck lives outdoors in NC latitude. Can't justify the steep price to replace it with another one if that's the expected lifespan. Do you have a better alternative?

      BAK Revolver bed cover

      By Bill Lemmond · Posted

      Thanks, your last sentence is the root of my problem, outdoors truck and southern latitude = UV overload. Looking at replacing with Rough Country powder coated aluminum slat roll up model.

      Tire fitment

      By JakeD · Posted

      I’m looking at putting a lift in my 2024 gmc sierra 1500 elevation trim, has anyone had any luck with fitting a bigger tire under the rear for a spare?? Was gonna go with a 4 inch zone lift Also what wheel and tire size setup are you all running? Wondering if I can get away with keeping around the stock size a 33 inch, and just get some new wheels to have enough back spacing then I can just keep my original spare tire I have under the truck now.
