So i put my RC 2" level kit and Toyo 295/55/20's on this weekend. Install was simple, just like on my 2011. It definitely helps to have an extra set of hands when wedging that spacer in there. 295/

Thanks. Here is one more from yesterday. Considering we're getting 8-10 inches of rain the next two days, I won't be taking any better pics soon.

Mine is finally done! After months of research I went with the RC 2.5" level kit front only, stock rear block. 20"x9" Fuel Nutz w/ +1 offset, 33x12.50x20 Toyo M/T tires. No rubbing, No trimming, yet a

Looks like the stick out about an inch right?

 

 

So a +18 offset would suck it back in 3/4" correct?

 

(I work on a construction site, don't want rocks/mud and crap all over the side of my truck)

Stock is about +27 I think, so +18 would give it a lil pop!

It's about an inch.

No worries, I appreciate it.

Pictures as promised :)

 

So, at full lock, I'm about 1/2 an inch from rubbing the back, and 2 inches from the front. This is with a 2" Fox level, +1 offset Fuel Assaults, and a 275/60/20 BFG KO2. There's no way I'd be able to get a 275/65/20 without trimming.

I just ordered a set of Toyo Open Country M/T 275/65r20. I am installing a 2.5" RC level lift Saturday. I wonder why some have had very minimal trouble with the 275/65r20 while you have difficulties at 275/60r20....Hopefully the install goes smooth. This makes me a bit nervous!

If I had gone with a less aggressive offset, I'm sure I could've gone with a slightly bigger tire. There were two options available for the Fuel Assault wheels, and I went with the more aggressive one.

Oh, I understand now. I appreciate the explanation!

 

Ok, there's still hope...there's still hope.

Thanks! I would plan on keeping my factory AT wheels and their offset would be different than the Fuel's. I'm assuming I'd have a little more room to play with, with the different offset.

Oh I agree. I'm pretty sure there are a few guys on here that went with the 275/65/20 on stock wheels. I believe the offset on the AT wheels is +27.

I kept stock AT wheels and went 275/65/20 on a 2.5" level. I did rub the carpet wheel liner but after zipties no rub

Got the front level on and the tires (Toyo Open Country M/T 275/65r20) today. Ran out of time due to family things. Putting the rear blocks on tomorrow!

Will I have problems with a 20x10 -12 offset wheel on a 2 inch level and 33x12.50 inch tires? I'd even consider a 305/55/20.

 

I've looked through this thread a couple times and I don't know if I've missed the info.

      Sure, but they do have some affordable options like the Trax, Trailblazer, Envista, and Encore. Some of these have a cheaper base price than the Civic, though the fuel economy isn’t as high. The main problem is that people WANT the highest trim with all the goodies and finance for like 7 years. That’s how ppl “afford” the more expensive vehicles.

      Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.

      LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL

      OBD not ready?

      By davester · Posted

      Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
