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.

14 silverado with 2.5 rough country leveling kit with 20x10 Hostile Sprocket wheels laced with 33x12.5r20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I did minor plastic cutting with no rub. I was told it couldn't be done and it was easily doneattachicon.gifIMG_20161229_163643_472.jpg

Did you put in the taller rear block as well, or just do the front with the 2.5? Also, do you happen to have post install measurements?? I have the 2.5 kit as well, but I'm unsure exactly what final measurements I want to shoot for. I haven't been able to get much info on DC's from other members as most seem to have the CC. I feel like the DC has a little bit different "dynamic" (not exactly the word I was looking for but it'll suffice haha) in regards to getting it to appear level than the CC's.

I got my 2015 leveled yesterday with 285/75r18s on stock wheels. 2.25" readylift. e9fb32455eb6e7a1ab4290d687ba3600.jpg4f06d63c867457887ff070665de117df.jpg

New to the forum so this has probably already been discussed but, I'm looking to get a 2.25" readylift leveling kit installed. The tire shop said I can run 295/70r18s with minimal to no rub. I'm planning on running the Toyo Open Country RTs. Anyone have this setup or similar?

 

They are going to rub UCA and Swaybar with stockers. Most likely something else when you bottom out the suspension on a bump. And look overstuffed.

 

They will fit with a more offset rim if you go 4" supsension lift, or 2.5 Level stacked with 1.5 Body Lift.

Thanks for the reply. I decided to go with Toyo AT 2 Extremes 285/75r18s. They fit good, no rubbing anywhere.

Stamped is steel and a magnet will stick, the aluminum will not stick with magnet. You've got a 15 LTZ like me and mine are cast, as the magnet stuck. :)

Those tires look beefy, do happen to have any pics from the front or rear to show the width aspect?

 

Here are some more pics if you were talking to me. 5adf925b48b45e9fb50d9a0d68daa879.jpg15bd07dc3b386871dc3c114abcd7963a.jpg191eaa1b672c6a33987df1716ea37105.jpg

After running the 1.5" blocks for about a week the suspension has settled and I still notice a squatting appearance. So I just ordered the 2" steel blocks with new U bolts and hope I get the stance I am looking for.31263c5a718cc580dc60824ddba1d304.jpg72a4e11f15bf7a2a17d7987ba7705449.jpg

After not trading my AT I decided to put on some tires big brother gifted me for Christmas. Truck now has a 2.5 inch level kit with Bilstein 5100's, fronts set at 0 lift and Toyo Open Country RT 33x12.50 on stock 20 AT wheels. Ride is firmer but truck looks killer. Will post pics later, right now file sizes are too large.

      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.
