Mike 1220. Been following you a while now. I was able to fit 34 inch tires with a level on my truck.

Yea but only if they are a 275/65/20 from what I have seen. Any wider and you will rub. I am planning on getting a 4" lift this summer along with 34.5" Nitto trail grapplers and 22x9.5" Fuel Mavericks or I will do a 295/65/20 Toyo M/T on a 20x9 w/ 0 offset. Just a bit taller than a level with 34s without putting you in the clouds like a 6" with 35s. Its a happy median for me.

Mike I have 285 55 22s no rub

On a level kit only? What are the manufacture specs on those tires? I am looking at the Nito Trail Graps that are spec'd at 34.5x12.05

 

If I can fit it without a 4" lift then I may get the rims and tires sooner. Of course it will still have to wait till the summer unless I can get enough money during the winter holidays, but doubt that will happen since I am already planning to get headers around Christmas

 

 

 

EDIT: Nevermind. I just realized that you have Nitto Terra Graps. I may end up with at least the rims and tires sooner than I expected during the summer. I may have to run a small spacer to keep the rims from colliding with the UCA since it has 6.25" of backspace though. But thats no big deal for a month or 2

I hit my camburg UCAs at full lock. that all it rubs on. I'm guessing spacers could fix that

 

 

Thank you good sir! I just might be getting these tires sooner than expected :) I wasn't expecting it till late summer, but now it may be late winter or early summer. All depends on the finances and whether or not I do headers this winter!

Here are a few more pics on the street with the truck on level ground. Let me know if you would like more pics and I'll get them for you. I received a lot of help from this forum and I want to return the favor haha.

Thanks! This was the shot I was looking for.

I read through the leveling forums and saw one person tried 295/70R18, has anyone else tried this size? Would these rub? Im looking to get the rough country 2.5" lift and use my stock 18" rims.

This man also did the work on my headlights, I can definitely vouch for his work. :thumbs:

 

I also ran across something yesterday you guys might find interesting. I saw someone run 35's on a single 2" leveling kit with almost 0 rubbing issues so he claims. Anyone else try this setup? (forgive me if this is old news, haven't had time to browse the forum lately)

Nice truck man. I'd say color matched handles and some debadging and done. Looks damn good. Welcome to the forum.

    • Thanks, so being a different beast altogether, anyone know what the "optimal" temp is for the 10L80/90 for proper shifting?
    • How many years have I pointed out every point in that link to the folks here and been avalanched with criticisms and outright hostilities at times? I ran counter to even the great CUSTOMBOSS and Lake Speed Jr and the half dozen experts on YouTube and in the final.....GM, Physics (Stribeck) backs that Grumpy old Bear.    Honestly, I never said a thing engineering hadn't studied silly and laid in concrete during WWII. But I'm old, the information is old and yet, the Laws of Physics are eternal.    Okay there is one exception. I vehemently disagree with their use of the word 'tolerances' when what it meant is "clearance".   The clearance is the distance between two objects. The tolerance is the degree of acceptable variation permitted in that clearance. I.E., piston to bore clearance is 0.004" with a tolerance of +/- .0002" so the clearance is in specification if it lies between 0.0038" and 0.0042". Cutting that 'tolerance in half has ZERO impact on lubrication requirements. Makes for more difficulty in manufacturing.  But a tighter clearance 'MAY'. Depends on finish. Anyway....   It's one of those statements made by people to make themselves look smarter than they are to convince people who are as un-enlighten as they seem to manipulate their behaviors. But hey, the blind leading the blind puts them both in the pit. 
    • Out and about yesterday on a long Saturday drive I passed a lot of Shell stations. My preferred, so I pay attention. Lot's of small town Illinois so not six stations in three blocks like the city.    Everyone of them over a radius of say 100 miles had regular at $4.19 but one which was the one closest to home at $4.15. However Premium pricing varied greatly between 85 cents over regular to $1.50 over. I'm not counting the price of the station with the lowest regular so the reference is the same for the remainder and all within the same brand. However the spread discrepancy holds across all brands.     @txab, any thoughts on that? 
    • What are your thoughts? The Chevy Blazer relaunch was an epic case of 'lunchbag letdown'. Jeep Wranglers and Ford Broncos stick out like a sore thumb.    The AI photos do not look like a 'retro version', but shrunken Tahoes. Get away from the 'futuristic look'. I've seen two concepts. One had rectangular headlight like a Rivian and the other way too big headlights (similar to a previous non-Wrangler SUV) should include dual round headlights like the early version.   If not this would look OK   At least it has GM styling (albeit the K2XX) A lot of the images floating around look like Bronco IIs or the current Bronco. Looking at the Broncos in my area (central Ontario, it seems to be a mix of 2 doors and 4 doors, 'mall rated' to ones that could go offroad.    I'm sure a AT4 and AT4X RPOs could be outfitted similar to a Rubicon if the braintrust understood the whole offroad scene. Crossing my fingers that if it does see the light that the front air dam/bumper doesn't extend below the center line of the tire...
