Zone level kit ko2 in 305/65-18

 

That's awesome. Would love some more pictures of this truck and some of the wheelwell clearances at full lock. I haven't seen anyone else try a 305/65r18 on stockers but always thought a BFG would work because they aren't as wide as the rest of the mfg.

 

Can you put a tape measure to the tire and give the true overall height and width for us?

I like my set up, but am already wanting to go with a 4.5 Suspension lift with bigger tires. Wouldnt look right if i used these tires lol

looking to do a 1.5" Readylift and trying to finalize a tire and size for my factory 20x9 wheels. I want the biggest i can fit with minimal to no rubbing. after the posts i have ready i seem to be able to for sure do a few different sizes in 275, 285, and even some shorter 305 widths. anybody running something similar with pics?

I have a 2.25 Ready Lift that was installed by the dealer, has anyone experienced a slight shake or rumble around 60-65? I brought it into the dealer and the answer they gave me was that the blocks make the steering lighter and it causes wandering leading to the rumble. Their solution was to rotate the tires. Anybody have input on this?

Makes no sense that rotating tires would fix that unless your tires were never rotated in over 10K miles and cupped, or way too much or too little PSI. I'm betting you probably have stamped steel control arms based off your username 16 silv, and any level kit over 2 inches creates problems with those arms.

 

Rough country made a kit specifically for these arms now with their 2.5 kit, it uses a preload spacer now for them instead of the bottom and top spacers used in all the other kits over 2 inches. I would install that kit or remove the 1/4 inch spacer from yours, AND make sure your tires are balanced correctly and alignment is correct. If all of the above have been checked, it's most definitely the kit being too much for those stamped arms.

Question for all you 2.5 RC enthusiasts. What are your thoughts on doing the the front 2.5 setup and putting the universal 5 inch blocks in the rear instead on the supplied 2 inch blocks?

 

Currently I have a 3" rake going on and figure it would only take .5" out of my rake but give me 4" in the back and 2.5" in the front.

 

Also curious going up to a 5" block with that kit and the u bolts wont work so what length u bolts I would have to go with?

 

Thoughts?

If you still want a rake use the bigger block. I used the 2" block that came with the kit, my measurements after install (including tires) are 39.5 at front fender and 40 in rear.
