Ya the rubbed pretty bad on the onside rear of the tire pies out the stock screws . Had to replace them with smaller ones that didn't have a washer on them that's what caught. Do t rub to bad now. Just sometimes at full turn.

I have either a 2" or 2.5" Rough Country level kit. I'm not sure which since it was dealer installed. I measured from the bottom of the air dam and it went from 9" to 11.5" of clearance. I put 275/70R18 BFG A/T's (33.2") on the stock rims which brought the truck up another inch. I'm thinking about replacing the rear blocks - any suggestions on size? I haven't measured, but the stock Z71 blocks look like they're 1.5".

Nice! What tires did u go with ? What's the manufacturer specs on the tire higth?

 

I have Cooper Zeon LTZs that are 33.2"H and 12.44"W on Boss 330 EcoChrome Wheels. These are from my 2008 Silverado lifted 2" upfront and definitely rubbed in that truck. I am pleasantly surprised I have no rubbing.

Hey guys... Bought used set of rims from my buddy only 3 months old 20x10* rim and - 24 offset and bought 305 /55 /20 copper Zeon ltz tires.. didn't really look into how they would fit on my 2014 gmc seirra , I have a 2.5 suspension lift on it and just tried the tires and rims on the front and they look mean!! Tires are not hitting any upper or lower control arms or sway bar... It's doing rubbing when I turn almost 3/4 left or right, on the mud flap and just above the mud flap on the inner fender liner.. Trying to see what size suspension lift I would need or body lift I would need? Or would yeahs recommend just getting a different set of rims, or buy 285/50/20 tires? Either way and bigger suspension lift is gonna run around $2,000* installed or new rims 1500-2000 and same with tires 2,000. What would yeah recommended please help

What's the norcoal fender mode? Trimming? And my buddy traded his truck for a diesel and kept the rims, I think I'm gonna go with a 7 inch lift

Get the rough country 5" kit. It'd be perfect for your wheel and tire combo. PM me if your interested I know a place you can get it for somewhere around $1,000 give or take shipped.

Hey there all. So I am in need of some expert advice. I put a 2.5" level on my 2014 Silverado so I could fit the 285r60 DuraTracs in, but I am having rubbing in both reverse and hard turns. I was wondering how large the the spacers I need to get should be? Will 1" be enough or do i need to go to 1.5"? Oh yeah, the offset is flush, though I don't know the exact offset as I didn't do the work. Thanks a ton for any help you can give.

2014 silverado base model I put a 3" level kit (the spacer is on top of the strout and is 1 1/2" thick not 3") but the truck ended up having the 3inch level I needed. Is that 3" level harmful? I don't drive the truck much, had it for almost 2 months and has only 800 miles on it.

How bad do they rub? I was contemplating on going with the 285/60 duratracs. Can you post some pictures?

    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
