2014+ Suspension Lifts

[jimmyboy8301]

Looking for some advice. Got a 2015 Sierra with stock 275/55/20. Debating between the rough country 2.5" level kit and 3.5" suspension kit. Any suggestions?

DO NOT get a 3.5" "suspension kit" they are just glorified leveling kits with terrible TRE and BJ angles. Get either a 2.5" kit or go for a 4"+ lift kit

No worries. I appreciate the advice. I was leaning towards the 3.5" from RC so good to know its no good. Do you know what size tire I can comfortably fit if I get the 2.5" leveling kit from RC? I don't want rubbing issues. Any preference between Nitto ridge grapplers or Toyo open country mts for a daily driver?

I know there has been a lot of discussion about what lift size to buy. I have a newborn, and a wife that is just 5 foot tall. So when we decided it was time to lift we both thought that going with the 4.5" lift was the way to go. After many hours of research and driving around to dealerships to crawl in and out of lifted trucks, we went with the Zone 6.5" (w/ Fox 2.0 shocks). To me, it is perfect. Even without steps (waiting to by Amp steps) it is manageable to get in and out, and putting my son in his a seat is actually in a better location than when just leveled. My truck could never fit in the garage due to length anyways, so that was never a concern.

 

Tires are 35x12.50 Toyo Open Country MT

 

I know that seeing all the trucks on here, and reading opinions helped me a ton. Hopefully this will help someone out at some point as well.

Toyo Open Country RT same design as Ridge Grappler but comes with a 45,000 mile treadwear warranty.

The guy at my local shop is saying that with the 20's I might get rubbing issues with the 295 and he's recommending the 285/55/20. Any experience? I would be surprised if I couldn't go more than 1" bigger than what I have for stock tires but don't want to risk the rubbing issue.

Thanks for the info. I'll have to check them out.

Does anyone on here have any experience with the Rancho quicklift loaded struts?

[Csjumper2003]

I ran the pro Comp quick lifts and they lasted about a year and started leaking like the oem ranchos so tossing between billies or 2.0 coilovers from fox
