Ya that's not a bad looking combo. I'm looking at -12 in a 18x9 from method now. May test fit this size as well.

I installed the RC 2.5 leveling kit on my 2014 (front only) and looking into getting some new shoes. Is it possible to run a 285/75r18 on the factory 18s? Ive been eyeing the toyo m/t and trail grapplers. I don't mind trimming/zip tie some carpet but I prefer to not have it rub. So if anyone can shed some light that would be great

 

It's a tall tire and very narrow. A guy at work has the R/Ts on his F250 and they look kinda odd being so tall and narrow.

 

I've only seen that combo on 2 GM 2014+ trucks and I have read thousands of posts. It's gonna rub. 285/65 or 295/65 will look better and give you less issues.

I have 285/65R18 BFG KO2 on my stock rims and I am very pleased... Only an RC front level...no running at all...I feel it's. Nice upgrade without breaking the bank on something bigger... I don't know if the size you requested would rub or not... Sorry I can't help there.

i have been in a couple parking garages, but none with extremely low ceilings yet...I can try to measure for you...i know its well under 7'...but it might be close to that 6'8 mark...

I've been stocking these forums for years finally decided to start showing it off. My 2016 Silverado z71 with TGC 2.5 leveling kit and stock rims and tires. 305/55R20 Nitto Trail Grapplers going on next Monday, will definitely update then. Just washed him yesterday.

Here's my Summit White next to my dad's Pearl Tricoat LTZ with 3.5 RC lift and 285/65R18 Nitto Terra Grapplers. Mine has a 6-speed, but his had an 8-speed and he gets in the 20s all day even with the small 33s and the lift.

Plenty of room... 6'5 would more than likely clear...

Is anyone running bilstein 5100/4600 shocks on stock setting with a 2" bottom spacer? Not worth it? I have the 5100s set @ 3rd setting with 1/2" top spacer and the ride doesn't seem any better than it was with the stocks shocks and spacers? Maybe I'm crazy but I don't feel it, would the ride be noticeably better with bilsteins @ stock and spacers than the stock shocks were? If not I may sell the 5100s and just go back to my stock shocks and 2" spacer.

Anyone running a 285/65r20

 

Found a set i'm thinking of picking up. Just installed a RC 2.5 lift.

Planning on a level and some 285 65 20 myself on stock All Terrain rims (my stockers). Can we see some pics of that set up?

    • Still looks like a rivet to me in the pics, I don't see a nut and none of the pics show the head of the screw. But if you says so.....
    • Thanks for all the help so far!   I did try right from 2026 right down to 2021, and only from 2023 down lets me select the option for tire psi change, but I get the vehicle not supported error!   I'll definitely try it under Chevrolet after work today, and I'll get the sensor number from gm for my truck tire sensors. And I'll let you know if it works for me under Chevrolet!   And if that doesn't work, I'm going to guess that what @Atlas said about maybe I have a different body control module could be true!  
    • From where I'm sitting this sounds like a compatibility problem. I'm assuming the 2007 was a 900-series truck, and not an 800-series (they were sold side-by-side in dealerships that model year), since it starts and runs.   This is why I HATE post-2006 vehicles. Everything becomes a huge problem when you try to keep the thing running for longer than the manufacturer has designed it to.    I can't remember when Global-A architecture started - either '10 or '11. For your sake, you had better hope it's '11, or you're going to be spending some BIG money to correct this cluster-eff. That's something you need to find out before doing anything else. You may have several computers bricked ... but the fact that it runs tells me you MIGHT be ok here.     EDIT: Just did a quick refresher. You're screwed. This is Global-A. The 2 systems are NOT compatible in the slightest. Once you get the correct engine in there that IS compatible, you're going to need to see how many computers are locked. Absolute NIGHTMARE to straighten out, too. Your buddy might be better off cutting his losses and finding something else.   Welcome to post-2006 vehicle electronics. This is why I quit the industry, and drive nothing built after 1994. This stuff takes all the fun out of wrenching!

    • True, hard to say what differences there may or may not be between Chev and GM as well as a production year or mid year part change either.    I just found it odd that under the Sierra choice on the Autel that many of the last few years of production year did not include the choice of changing the tire pressure but if that is an Autel thing or a GM thing as to why the choices were not there. Knowing what tpms sensors are on the truck should give some guidance into which choices on the tool even make sense to try as I wouldn't give up just yet with the tool but I guess he will see what if anything he comes up with if he finds out a bit more info and tries a few more things on the Autel.
