Wow outstanding looking. Do you have any more pics of your tires? Any rubing? Looks great. Thanks

I did have a slight rub on the sway bar but was cured with a .25" wheel spacer

I'm new to the forum but just wondering if anyone out there has installed the 2-1/2" moto fab front leveling kit only. I have a 2014 GMC Sierra slt. I measured from center of front wheel (21) and center of rear wheel(24), that is to the wheel well. If so would you post some pics. I definitely don't want the sag! Any info and/or pics will be greatly appreciated!!

We need more pics of guys running 18in rims and tires. I am still debating with the 2 or 2 1/2 in rough country or go the Rancho ready lift shock system.

looks good, what size tires you going with.

Gonna get some 295 55 20 trail grappler is what I'm eying right now. I like the wider stance, and want 305s but I think even 295 is pushing it on stock wheels

Yeapp... you're gonna rub the control arms / sway bar on full lock with 295's on stock 20's.

I don't mind a little rub at full lock, however I plan to get aftermarket rims within 6 mo's of purchase. And I might buy all together, but don't know if I want to spend that much spare dough at once.

I plan to do 295/55/20 on a rim with 0+ offset

The rims (20x9) im looking at have +1 offset, and from my research shouldn't rub very much if at all.

Wow... thanks for such a great thread... Spend days reading this.

 

I'm putting a 2in rough country level on my 2015 LTZ Z71 4x4 5.3 this weekend. I prefer a lot of rubber versus a larger wheel, so is the consensus pretty much that with 18"inch wheels, 275/70/18 is the maximum tire size in my configuration without havinig to do any trimming or have rubbing?

 

Thanks in advance for your advice and information.

After doing some digging I agree. Nitto makes 285/55/20 though which will probably be what I'm after. Wish toyo made that size. If toyo would get some decent sized RTs that's what Id be going with. While the wheel well allows plenty of space for wheel diameter thickness is pretty limited due to the offset of the stock wheels. 285/55/20 comes out at 32.6x11.89x20 according to nittos site. You can always try 295/60/20 which I've given thought to. According to toyos site they're 34.2x11.89x20. Id rather have toyos over nitto but 285/55/20 is a good size for stock rims. 275/65/20 is another that is 34x11x20.

 

Buddy of mine is running 285/75/18 toyo Mts on an RC 2.5" lift and says he just runs at full lock. Id be willing to bet it's a bit more than that.

I have 2.5 RC leveling kit on my truck. I got these wheels and tires, wheels are 20x9, -12 offset. Tires are about half tread 285/50/20 Terra Grapplers. Looking to do 305/50 or 305/55 after these.

    • Yep! This should be a pin somewhere as @pgamboa really dives into all of this. Thanks for reposting the link!
    • I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.       
    • Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.  
    • I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires. 
    • Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉
