Although I feel your post is extemely trolling ill entertain the fact you think it's a contradiction, you may want the level wheels and tires for hitting the trail and getting in the good ole mud hole or whatever you intend to use ur truck for. I however want the level wheels and tires because I think the look is very sharp looking and hay I dropped xxx amount of money on a truck why not make it exactly how I would like it to look. Hope that clears up the confusion

Yes I just simply said don't expect someone not to say something. You put M/T tires on a truck that won't touch "mud". No one is saying you didn't spend that money but if someone says something when you say no it hasn't went in mud.

Just to clear up some confusion and not waste anymore of our fellow forum members time. I am looking at a 2.5" level with a 20x9 +1 wheel, and would like to know what A/T tire size I can go with (such as the terra grappler G2's just as an example of an A/T tire) with out having to do much trimming and/or none at all, on my 2015 1500 HC

Where are you getting 450-550 for leveling? An rc 2" is $49.

So far i have called 4 places locally here in MT (2 tire shops and 2 custom shops) and thats where their prices are ranging. I havent talked to the dealer yet, may wait on one of those flyers they keep sending out thats 15%off accessories

Those off-topic interjected opinions to simply pass judgement on others will almost always cause confusion and waste time. We can get back on topic, with the 2.5" level and that offsite, I'd still look at the 305/55/20 if you want widest and tallest you can fit with the possibility of a little rubbing with the +1 offset. Although, you might be able to squeeze something taller but narrower in there. All depends on that rim offset you choose. That's what really will determine the size of tire you can run. Check stores or online retailers that specialize in wheel tire combos and give them a call. You'd be surprised on what they can determine over the phone or email. Also, take a look at the 2014+ Wheel and Tire Setup topic here: http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/161228-post-your-2014-wheeltire-set-up/?st=0 Might give you good look at what to expect with that offset and size. I know there's some guys on there running that rim with A/Ts. Just a question of their lift/level after that.

 

FYI, The most popular A/T tires I found being ran on here when I was researching them seem to be: BF Goodrich All-Terrain KO2, Toyo A/T II, or Nitto Terra Grapplers G2s.

 

Hope all that helps. Hopefully someone with knowledge on or running that wheel offset with the a 2.5" level can throw in some valuable info.

I have the ready lift 2 1/4 front leveling kit installed on my 15 Denali. I also had the Dealership install the sensor kit to get the magnetic ride to function properly. Now it rides like my wife's 2015 Yukon Denali ~K€.

If you have a jack and basic sockets and a lil mechanical knowledge it's real easy. With alignment and parts I was only out 75 bucks.

 

If you don't have the tools, great time to start take that hundreds saved and buy you a jack and socket set.

Installed mine today. Wasn't bad at all. First side was about an hour figuring what bolts had to come out vs just being loosened. Lol. Second side was 20 mins. Man it looks so much better. Got exactly 2" of lift in the front. Getting my alignment tomorrow.

Here is my truck with 1.5" level kit with 285/55/20 Terra Grapplers and factory mudflaps.

 

What manufacturer level kit did you go with? Was it Ready Lift by chance?

Does anybody know if you need longer rear shocks once you do a level kit, a kit with larger rear blocks of course. Or will it be okay only raising 1"

You'll be OK. I have a 2 inch block in mine and all fine. As far as I read even going w a 3 inch rear block would still be ok

Lol none of that i have. But youre def right im sure itd save me a lot in the long run for things that are DIY doable/fixable. At the same time I always worry about things that arent 100% cosmetic that are done outside of a business in case something happens ya know.

    • I wasn’t commenting on your post. Certainly wasn’t arguing. I was making an observation on my long term experience with supposedly proper length of driving for proper heat cycles. Works for me. Although I have seen water or vapor come out of exhaust when vehicles weren’t run very long and shut off. It’s very humid in the morning. Then hot and humid. 
    • Not what I said but I can work with it anyway. Complete combustion produces CO2 and H20. When it's cold enough you can 'see' it as water vapor but it is always there and more so the better the tune up. It's physics, not an argument. In a cold motor when the cylinder jacket is below the condensation temperature the water goes to the pan and not the PCV system. Heating the oil moves it from liquid to vapor where it is removed by the PCV system. When and how much depends on temperatures. Of the air, the water and so on. It has little to with the humidity. Water is a combustion product.  
    • I can only guess as well that something was clicked on that brought you to the half ton choices by accident. By all means try again and chose the 3500 and sort out that its the cab and box configuration you want and choose four wheel drive ( rather obvious to have a transfer case ) and to make sure the dually isn't chosen. I find or at least did a couple of years ago when I was sifting through the options that it would sometimes jump ahead after choosing the series of truck and in this case 3500 and skip some of the other initial configuration choices and have to watch the heading bar and sometimes back up by choosing the first in the series of option break downs. I think sometimes the computer will remember items that were last chosen and skip over the first part. Anyway go through it all and depending on the trim level chosen and I think the LT is one that may fall into that where the option of having the 4 high auto transfer case can be chosen, where as a High Country doesn't show that option as it just comes with the fancier ( not necessarily better though in terms of potential problems ) transfer case but for sure both transfer case choices are equipped with high and low range in the HD truck segment. Like Newdude said who works at a dealership, its the half tons that are the ones that will come with the single speed unless certain options or trim levels are chosen that add the two speed transfer case but as your looking at an HD, you don't have to worry about that hot mess.    One item that at least didn't show up and not sure if it does yet or not in the HD options on the manufactures pubic website is the upfitter in cab switch option if one is desiring that. Unfortunately its not wired in at the factory but the panel with the switches is on the dash but the wiring harness to be installed gets tossed under the rear seat to be installed by whomever after the fact to complete the installation. 
    • Yesterday we brought home a 6yr  old Havanese dog from a nearby SPCA.  We've had her for 24 hours and we are delighted with how well she is adjusting to her new home.  It  was a huge decision to adopt a dog at this stage in our lives but we believe we made the right choice!   it was reported that her first 6 years were ones of neglect.  I think she's already realizing her life is going to get a whole lot better...  so is ours!    
    • I thought I was building a HD 3500 srw, maybe I was lost.
