2017 z71 cc with 2.25 level and 285 65 r18 ko2s. Happy with it as I didnt want any rubbing and keep it reasonable. not bad for under 2k with level, wheels, and tires.

That's a good look. Your rims look a lot like my stocker GMC Z71 rims. And please peel that auto dealer sticker off the tailgate...that's the only debadging needed!!

oh yeah theyre stock gmc wheels, I liked the 18s better than the 17s that came on my truck. Dealer swapped them before i bought the truck thats why i got such a good deal. Bought the 18s for 300 OTD and sold my stockers with tires for 1k. If the weather ever stays decent ill remove that sticker. its usually the second thing i do.

New here but have been looking around at leveling kits for a while. Just got my Ready Lift 2.25 installed so wanted to post a pic. Maybe this will help someone else make a decision. Ride is exactly same or maybe even better (I know I must be imagining that). Cost me $480 for kit and install here in Southern Cal.

Awesome looking truck. What size Tires and did you have a rear block installed?

NIce! Been looking a bit myself and ther eare just so many options... Was this Lift Kit just for the Front? You have a model #... Did the shop help you determine was size kit you needed depending on your current rake and what you were looking for: True level, Slight Rake, Slight Squat... Please post some more pics if you have them..

 

Thanks bud..

Shop didn't help but I didn't really ask either... I just did a quick measurement on the back and front wells a knew anything less than the 2.25 would leave me wanting. In the end it worked pretty much perfectly. I think there is a very slight rake still, which is cool with me. I don't have the kit model # handy. Here are a couple more pics (not the best quality I know).

Hi Everyone,

 

Posting for some clarification, I've been digging through this thread looking at all the great builds but want to get some answers from folks who have done this. I'm looking at doing the 2" RC level on a 15' AT with the stock 20" wheels. I had my tire guy order the Nitto Terra G2s in 275/65R20 but I'm now reconsidering that after reading into more posts. Some say that there is no rub while others say there is. I'm wondering if anyone has done this setup and could let me know what their results were. If I should go for a smaller but wider tire too that would be good to know. Very new to the world of truck upgrades but the dealer found a shred in the right front the other day so I guess it's time to do some upgrades.

 

Thanks Folks

I think you're asking for trouble with the 275/65 on a 2" level. This is definitely the case with duratracs as a buddy tried and had to go to a 2.5" level. Not sure if the G2s are a bit small than the duras, but at full lock and in reverse they rubbed.

My Duratracs rubbed the carpet with 275/60R20 on stockers.... Duratrac tread is huge but still.

 

I have a 2" Motofab.

Gamma I would say go with the 2.5 inch level kit with the 275/65's. Just a bit more peace of mind since that tire is quite tall.

I think they will fit. Mine fit pretty easy with a couple zip ties on the fender liners. I have the 2.5 but I think they will fit with a 2 inch.
