2 inch RC level with 275/65/20 GY duratracs. Haven't noticed any rub, looks close to the carpet liner only.

I know this post is a month old already but I just came across it and I was actually thinking of doing this set up with my truck. How high does your truck sit now? Also, how off is your speedometer?

I never measured the height of the truck but can do so later. The speedometer is off according to a tire size comparison website but never actually checked against gps. The calculator says at 40mph the truck is really going 42.8 mph. The faster you go the greater it is off.. At 70 the truck is really going 74.

I like the duratracs and am considering. Has your mileage been affected much by the level and tire swap? You're the first I've seen with the exact setup and size I want.

Not gonna lie , I haven't calculated the gas mileage. You can't go off the DIC anymore cause I've traveled further than it is calculating. I don't drive too far for work so even if it did suffer It wouldn't bother me much.

I have a 2015 Gmc Sierra 1500 All-Terrain and a 2.5" RC level kit on the front only. What is the biggest tire I can run? I'm sure it has been answered, but this thread is ridiculously long. I also have 20inch A/T painted rims. I was hoping for 275/65/20 or 295/60/20 but who knows. Thanks

Did you retighten the ones in the middle of the sway-bar, as well as all the ones connected with the Bilstein install? They always say to recheck after some mileage.

 

Also, just a question... did you get your alignment, yet? Could they have left something loose?

 

Im going to drop it off at the shop tomorrow and theyll take it apart again. Once they figure out whats wrong theyll do an alignment.

 

Does this bushing look right to you? (pic in attachment)

Traded my silver 2014 with 2.5rc and 295/60/20 for a red 2015. 2.5rc and 285/65/20 bfg ko2

I love your set up on the red truck. Are you close to rubbing? I am leaning towards a proComp 2.25" level with these tires. I may go with 2.5" level if you say you are close to rubbing. I have the same rims as you. I found the ko2 285/65/r20 tires for $1270 delivered which seems reasonable. I guess I could add a body lift if these tires end up rubbing. Thanks for your time!

 

Another general question....

Are there typically some pretty good deals to be had on tires on Black Friday?

I have not had them rub but I think they are really close. I only have 1000 miles on them and zero off road miles. I am very happy with them.

Pretty much exactly what mine look like.

I would like to raise the front of my 2015 GMC Sierra 4x4 SLE. But I'm not sure to install a 1.5"level kit from ready lift or install shock Bilstein 5100 height adjustable. Please help me to make a decision.

I used the Bilstein 5100's on my truck and really like them. I know most ppl on here go with RC 2 OR 2.5" or similar route but, it's just personal preference. I've also heard that the Bilstein's are backordered almost everywhere.

RC 2.5 in front, 1.75 block in rear

 

Where did you get the 1.75" rear block? The RC website lists the block in the 2.5" kit as a 2" rear block. Does the kit actually contain a 1.75" or did you use a different block?
