2014+ Leveling Kits

[Parker93]

Haven't noticed anything yet! Rides similar to stock. Tires may it a tad more rough, but that's expected. I'm going to replace the rear shocks anyways, the ranchos are terrible

Do you know what you're replacing the rancho shocks with?

Either bilsteins or halolifts (formerly f150lifts).

Here's a before and after of a 2.5" RC front & 2" rear block on my '16 Sierra with factory 20's.

Below is a pic of my suspension and the angle of my front drive shaft at the wheel. Love the look of the raised truck, but the ride, its another question. I read back thru the last 20 pages of this specific forum, and only found one comment about the ride. Mine feels as if there is rolling resistance, as if something is holding it back. Yes, in neutral it rolls as it should but even then or under power, still feels like resistance. It's only been 2 weeks since I completed the DIY project. Any thoughts anyone? Just searching the web, a ricer forum thought someones E-brake cable might be pulling taught. Any help?

You get an alignment yet? That could definitely be the issue if not.

Will a rough County 2.5 leveling kit allow for a 275 70 18 tire without rubbing?

I have that size on my truck and its perfectly fine. Never had any rubbing issues.

The other reply is correct though, throws the speedometer off.

at 60-70 its off about 3mph and at 75-85 its off by about 4.

Rolling over 40k on my stock tires now. So i'm doing my research for my new setup once they are shot.

 

I plan on getting Fuel Assault D546 20x9 or 20x10. The 20x9 is available in a +1 or +20 offset, the 20x10 is a -18 offset. I want to wrap these in a 275/60 Bfgoodrich T/a KO2. Any suggestions on which wheel would be better? I wouldn't mine 1/4 - 1/2 inch sticking out of the wheel well if that's viable.

 

As for the lift, I was looking at the MotoFab kits, would a 2.5 front and 2" rear fit the wheel setup and maintain a slight rake? Or would I be better off with the 3" front and 2" rear?

 

Thanks for the help gents, i'm new to this, my first real truck. I've got a 2015 Sierra SLE double Cab 4x4 if that helps.

A 2" leveling kit should leave you with about a 1/2 to 1" rake with stock rear.

Would that comfortably fit the wheel setup I mentioned earlier? I can't seem to grasp this whole offset stuff.

20x10 is too wide for a 275 tire, especially a KO2 that already has a narrow section width, unless you're going for that look 7.5-9.5 is the approved width per BFG, doesn't mean you can't do it though, a negative 18 will likely rub as well especially on a 10 inch wide wheel possibly more than a zip tie can fix. 275 60 20 on a 20x9 +1 should clear and give the truck a nice stance. Just my 2 cents.

I have a 2014 silverado 1500 with a 2" rough country front only level. Just got myself a set of 18×9 xd hoss wheels with a +18 offset. Anyone think I would be able to clear either 275/70/18 or 285/65/18 without any rubbing or trimming? Greatly appreciate the help.

Waaazooo do you happen to have any pictures? How much clearance do you have at full turn?

There is a guy on here running 295/70/18s on +18 offset wheels. You should be fine.
