2014+ Leveling Kits

Firered14 · December 10, 2015

Anybody running a 2" or 2.5" without rear blocks and 20x10 -24 with 305/50? What kind of issues would I be looking at?

from what I read there would be rubbing that would require trimming and or zip tying fenders etc. I was thinking about going with that set up but it seemed risky

I have 2015 GMC Sierra z71 package. If I just put 2 inch RC leveling kit on the front. Can I put Bfg All terrains KO2 275/65 r20 on truck without rubbing. Thanks new to forum.

Not sure as I have 18's but if you search you will find the answer. Got pics of your truck?

^{I saw a new ford running 275 70 18 Toyo MT's and thought they looked pretty good, so I did a little research. Toyo has them listed as a 33x11 and rimzoneonline has them as 33.6x11. If I were to guess from looking at the ones on the ford I'd say they were 33.6in. Is anyone running that diameter tire or close on a 2.5in level? I currently have a 1.5in level and was thinking I could add a 1.25 or 1.5in body lift to get me a little more clearance than a 2.5in level. I would put them on 18x9 with 0 offset. Any help would be great, Thanks!}

just did the 2.5 RC level/lift on my 15 Z71 crew cab. 20x9 fuel wheels with +1 offset and 305/50/20 toyo's. no rub, actually there is room I could have run 305/55's, but I didn't want to mess up the speedo on a truck with 500 miles among other reasons.

install was a breeze, although having someone to help and taking your sweet time made it easy and enjoyable. I can see how rushing could make this install suck.

+1 offset sticks out just enough to look good and have a nice lip. Looking back if I could have found a wheel I like in say -12 I might have gone that route, but -24 was just too much IMO for a daily driver brand new truck although it does look good on some folks setup.

I am running 275/70/18's on mine with a 2" level with no issues whatsoever.

Do you think a 20x10 would fit ok with the 305/50?

I currently have 275 60's and I am looking at going taller myself. My 2.5" level lift should be sufficient for that size, and I would think yours also.

I have the rough country 2" leveling kit ready to be installed, but I'm concerned how the truck will look once the leveling kit is installed and when I pull my 28' travel trailer. I dont want to be one of "those people" that looks like their TT is too heavy for their truck and makes the rear look saggy...

I have a 2" level on mine as well and looking at this exact same setup. Was wondering the same thing.
