appreciate your help! hopefully solves the cement truck ride issue haha :)

love how my truck looks but just need the ride to be improved even a bit. one little bump and you feel it through the cab, jumps everywhere.

Here's my bone stock 2015 Sierra All-Terrain "before" pictures for reference. Plans are 2.5" RC kit up front, gonna leave the stock blocks in the back. I'll swap for the RC blocks if I have less than 0.5" rake or looks "nose high".

It's also getting 295/55r20 (33x11.5) Toyo AT2 Xtreme tires on stock 20's and black Bulletproof offset mud flaps. Should be done after the weekend, I'll report back with "after" pictures and measurements.

I installed the top gun customz on our truck... just the 2 inch. works great.

 

All steel.

I'm about to install the top gun customz 2.5 inch, any issues or tips you can give on the install? Also, how's the ride now?

I love the stance of the truck now. The LT tires are great but you'll feel every bump in the road being a z71. Fuel mileage is around 19-20 highway and around 15-16 city

Thanks for the picture, they look good. Picking mine up tomorrow. Did you have them on before level? I haven't leveled mine yet, can't decide on 2" or 2.5"

Yea I was running them before the lift without any rubbing.

NoTyme - Nitto makes a 305-55-20XL Terra Grappler which are 33.2" tall and 12.4" wide and are extra load 4ply tire and not an LT 10 ply. These weigh in at 49lbs. Pretty happy medium, and I think this will be my next set of tires.

Thanks, I do like that height but I don't think 305/55 will work on my stock rims. I will be using Hollander 5308 wheels with my new tires and the ones in the photo are my winter shoes. I think my 5308's are 8.5 wide... Maybe even the offset won't be enough.

Anyone running 305/55 R20's on stock GM wheels?

Before you level and get bigger wheels... Here's a real world # heading North on 75 doing 75 with a set of LTs. There was a north wind of about 10mph this evening. I lost about 4-5 mpg average. LT 275-70-18 Nitto's. My speedo is off by 2 mph as well. d69a687737dc1071cbf634797bf61181.jpg

I got the 1 and a quarter leveling kit on my 2014 only on the front and im looking into buying a bigger set of rims and tires. what the biggest tire I can get for 20 inch rims? Also I would like to get a nice offset on the rims that stick out past the fenders a little bit. Any ideas guys?

Wow! Looks good, and with just the 2" level up front? I might be changing my mind... Do you know the width of them wheels? I got to do some new research... My Hollander 5308's are 8.5" wide (I believe) and have a 31 mm offset. If them tries fir on 8.5" wheels I may have found my next set of tires...
