So I got the leveling kit on front and back. So I dont want huge tires, but what size can I safely go up to without affecting speedometer and such too much.

Thanks in advance

Ok, so I've been skimming through this thread looking for an answer to this question but have not seen it yet. Does anyone have any experience with a 6-6.5" lift with 20" wheels and 33x12.5 tires? I bought 33" toyo RT tires a couple months ago thinking I'd be happy with the level lift but am moving forward with a zone lift now. I was going to get the 4.5" lift but now think I may like the height of the 6.5". I really just want to make sure the 33" tires will look ok on the 6.5 until I am ready to buy 35" tires.

 

Does anyone have pics of the 6 or 6.5" lift with 33" tires on these 2014 and up 1500s? I can't seem to find any on here or elsewhere.

Ok. So When I said I am new. I mean I am new. When you say 33s what does that mean in sizes?

Sorry do not understand what you mean?

i have a 2016 Silverado LT Extended Cab 4 Door -2WD ,I want as little lift as possible but still get my 33x12.5's on, I'm going with the Hostile Alpha 20x10 - 19, so i have to go with a RC 5", my question is will a 2WD sit lower than a 4WD with the same lift? i see some 5" RC lifts and like the hight and see some and don't, i was thinking some were 4WD and the others were 2WD

If you are going with the 6.5" lift you might as well wait and put on the 35" tires at the same time. The lift with 33" tires will look funny. A lot of gap with no tire

you are asking for two separate things....You can run those wheels with a 2.5" lift but will most likely need to do trimming because of the rubbing. They should all look about the same with the lifts

I just had the Zone off-road 6.5" lift put in with 35/12.50/20 Nitto Terra grapplers mounted on Gear Alloy Big Block wheels (20x10 -19 offset). The truck turned out perfect with only a small amount of rubbing on the backside of the fender well.4a8c572cedad42a9bcdfd7c004b06437.jpg835375a0ba9943a038e418bf584e0657.jpgd7894ba977cb0f404c2428fb8896edc1.jpg

I have a 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 All Terrain Crew Cab 4x4 with the short bed and 6.2 engine. It also has the stamped steel control arms. It also has the stock 20 snowflake wheels.

I want to lift the truck mildly and run the stock rims. I also would like to lift it and not have to run wheel spacers. Really hoping I can run a 4.5 inch Zone. Can you tell me if this will work. The tires that interest me most are Nitro Ridge Grappler in a 35x11.50R20 to stay a little more narrow and run an E range.

I have seen several trucks online running a similar setup but I need assurance that this will work. Most of these seem to be BDS 4 inch kits doing this but a few Zones.

Thanks, Luke.

Can someone clear something up for me.
I had a ReadyLift Leveling kit put on my '14 Sierra 1500 Both front and back.

I had asked what tires I could go with, currently I have 265/65/18

I saw an answer that said 33s

Unfortunately I have no idea what that means in tire size

 

Could someone give me an idea.

I am not looking for aggressive, just truck tires.(little bit aggressive maybe). I will eventually also be putting winter tires on different 18" rims as well.

 

any help would be good.

thank you in advance

You can look at toyo rt's. Very nice medium aggressive tires.

the place thats doing my lift (Modifications Unlimited) and all other places that i called said that i need a minimum of 5 inches with that offset, i could get away with a 4 inch if i stayed with a positive offset, i guess the 2016 wheel well is really square i guess, i think, hell i have no idea anymore !!!! lol

    • 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?
