How do you plan on adjusting the odometer for that taller tire? Word is by GM that even if all you do is change the odometer stuff if you have any powertrain issues GM can use the fact you tuned the ECM to fix odometer error due to non stock size tires to deny powertrain warranty issues.

I'm running P275/60r20 Open Country AT2s with a 1" level. I have about 1500 miles on them and they are awesome. The tires rub the front driver side wheel well liner in reverse at full lock. Even with a 2.5" level kit you may still rub but it won't be bad. My speedo is off 2 mph at 70 mph. If those 275/65r20s are LT tires you are going to notice a significant decrease in acceleration and MPG but they will look great.

I have 275/60R20 Cooper AT3 with 2.5" RC lift kit, no rub at all and looks nice. 275/60R20 was the biggest size P tires that I could find, as I didn't want to go with LT tires and sacrifice MPG and the soft ride.

Any rubbing? A local shop is going to install a 2.25 Ready Lift kit for me, but they are afraid I can't fit those tires on aftermarket wheels - they said they have only put this big of tires on factory wheels.

I think they will work fine, mine don't close to rubbing

20x10 fuel hostage - 24 offset

305/55/20 Falken wild peak a/t

 

It did rub a little, I just cut a small piece of the back mat and hammered the sheet metal about 1/8".

as long as you use a 20x9 with 0 offset you should be fine, Once you use a 20x10 wheel thats when you run into problems but if you want the deep dish look the 20x10 wheel is the way to go. Just stick to a 5" backspacing and go with 285/55/20 to be on the safe side. It will still look aggressive if you go with mud tires or all terrains.

I've got a 2014 Denali.

 

I've got the 20x9 KMC D2's and Toyo 285/55r20 sittin gat the shop ready to go.

 

I ran the same combo on a 2012 Avalanche with very little "reverse-over-a-bump-rubbing-at-full-lock" rub

 

Do you guys think I'll need a level? Hope not.

Most likely, with 285/55/20 on a 20x9 -0- offset wheel all you will probably need is a 2" leveling kit. No need for 2.5" or taller leveling kit with 285. With a 2.5" leveling kit and 20x9 wheel -0- offset people have been putting 305's with no rub.

Im wanting to run 275 70 R18 on stock wheels with 2 inch rough country lower strut mount leveling kit. Will they fit?

 

You should be fine

YQatari do you have any pics? Would love to see them. As for mod the speedometer I hadn't put much thought into that yet. Would hate to void the power train warranty... As for LT vs P? I have no idea what that is

LT tires are 10 ply, P tires are generally 4 ply. LT or "E" range tires are heavier and tougher, usually have stiffer sidewalls and resist flats better the P tires. *Most* people don't need LT tires.

Well guys here she is leveled and new skins. I haven't discovered anything rubbing and the ride is incredible over those crappy Goodyears that come from the factory. Leveling Kit was a $40 Ebay 2" level kit, Aluminum spacer. Also New Nitto Terra Grapplers, yes they are wide 305/60/18. The look is awesome compared to factory. Here are the images.

    • Glad it worked for you. I tried that 1st, about 2 years ago. Didn't help. I also tried doing a hard reset (disconnecting battery for minimum of 30 minutes). Worked a couple times, but after one summer of doing it over and over, that no longer worked.  I was fairly confident it was either the compressor or a failed actuator, but I just couldn't identify which one. Had to research which actuators do what and which last numbers are associated with each.
    • Took me FIFTEEN MINUTES to find this. Isn't that a problem? On the mainstream media I can INSTANTLY find 100 articles bashing President Trump ... but when it comes to TRUTH in American corporate news & search engines, it's carefully filtered to support ONE SIDE. A Republic cannot survive like this! Incredible! Even all the AI searchers out there failed as well! ChatGPT said it needed more details on the video that I provided a DIRECT LINK to! I thought AI was the be-all, end-all?? I had to dig it up myself. This should be FRONT PAGE NEWS!!! 🤬   Here's the statement directly from our President:     Glenn Beck's reporting on the operation:   https://glennbeck.com/watch/videos/trump-just-revealed-a-massive-military-secret-that-lowered-gas-prices   In case that link doesn't work, here's the YouTube link:     And another 15 minutes to find this clip out of Glenn Beck's video - the first few seconds is all the corporate media will allow the public to see, since the low IQ people will think Trump said " I love inflation ", and that was the end of it. Taken WAY out of context! Here's that part, plus the 2nd part about the oil smuggling operation:  
    • More is cylinder deactivation. Kia-Hyundai Ive had 4. The warranty is the same 10 years 100K miles. My grandson drives the first one 05 Elantra GT. My wife drives the second one 2011 Genesis. The Genesis still performs as new and looks great. The Elantra looks rough. He’s not kind to it. The third was a Genesis coup. The fourth was a Santa Fe. Those were my daily drivers. I don’t keep them long. Kia is the same as Hyundai with the same warranty. I looked at the K-4 today. Too small, otherwise pretty good buy. Most of Hyundai and Kia’s have a performance upgrade. 
    • Thanks for the point of reference 
    • Great question. Answer....depends. One the volume of the crankcase, the driver that will actually be using the vehicle and the amount it uses plus the distance expected for that next trip. Couple of for instances:   Wife is going to drive Dizzy to Moline and back plus a bit around town so say 500 miles on the day. I know from years with that SUV that around town and local rural it uses about a quart in 1250 miles. But on the Interstate and her at the wheel without her anchor nagging her she'll push it and it will drop a quart in about 800 miles. Hence, around town I wait to somewhere between a quarter down to a quart down. On her trip I'd top it if it was down a few ounces and hope for the best.    Have I overfilled one? You mean by adding before it needs a full quart I assume. No, not once after finding the true fill mark.  I know the dipsticks of everything I drive and add what it needs. I learn this by doing the first oil change a quart low. Run the motor for a few minutes. Let it sit over night. Check and mark. Then add half a cup at a time making note of the place on the stick. I add through the dipstick tube with a barbeque basting bottle. Give it a few minutes to drain down and check again.    A vehicle like Dizzy that uses this much oil will take a few quarts between 3K changes. I keep one in the vehicle with the bottle and a bag. (Mindful of it's fullness) Not a big deal and never makes a mess of it. There is no such thing as "multiple quarts' in my shop for any specific oil. There will be a maximum however of the number of different oils used over the fleet.     Dizzy holds a nominal 5 quarts. So the first fill was indeed over as it actually took 4.75. My vehicles are fit with Valvomax valves so I can meter an ounce on the drain if need be. Found her mark first crack at it. Never to be repeated.    Pepper uses none between changes so I don't keep a quart in that one. Straight up 6 quarts put her dead on the full line. Check it ever fuel stop. They will surprise you when they start using.    Raven holds 3 liters or 5.44 ounces over three quarts. I add 3 quarts and 6 ounces. That gives me 5 oil changes on my orphan quart.    Lawnmower holds about 3/5 of a quart. I don't over fill it to prevent an orphan. So yea, depends.
