It was that way right after getting it all done before was freezing. But a little worse since got colder.

 

Those Toyo R/T's are 78 lbs in a 33. I bet your closer to 90lbs in a 35.

 

I chose not to get them cause of the weight.

The Goodyear Duratrac are 48 lbs in a 33 and the Toyo AT2's are 58lbs in a 33.

 

I bet its all that weight, still seems really low.

I don't think I ever compared the difference in weight between R/T's M/T's and trail grapplers.

I have spent the last week doing exactly that.

I wanted the best look and best millage. Those R/T's are stupid heavy.

Favorite truck on this site by far.

 

 

What is your wheel/tire size again?

 

Thanks man, I appreciate that! Wheels are 18-inch Method Mesh with 275/70/18 tires.

Got my 2015 Sierra in October. First Truck I've ever bought, and am happy I did! Hardest part is not pouring piles of money into it...

 

So far:

Ready lift 2" level (has 4" blocks in back, changing to 2" blocks)

275 60 R20 Goodyear Wrangler Adventures

Spray in Liner

 

To do:

Borla Atak Dual split side exit exhaust (In the mail)

Airaid Cold air intake

285 60 R20 Duratracs (once 2" blocks are on)

Bushwacker flares

 

Potential to do (input appreciated!):

Front window tint (not sure %)

plastidip emblems

remove air dam

anzo tail lights

black out all chrome

 

Picked up at the dealership

that truck has a lot more then a 2" level on it.

 

That is a sick looking truck. Love it and I don't like the blacked out look, typically.

They're 75 lbs. Which is 5 lbs less than M/T's. I'm still looking at others but Cepaks are about the same. Can't find numbers on trail graps yet.

Tire shop I asked must have been wrong.

I know they said a 33x12.50x18 was 78 lbs. That is way to heavy for me.

I did not look them up on my own.

It's hard to see the numbers in those images for some reason, but if you go directly to www.toyo.com you can view the weights and other specifications of each tire.

Width has a lot to do with how much the tires weigh, I was initially planning on running 305/55r20 (33.2x12.4) Toyo AT2's but realized they were 74lbs a piece.
By simply going down to a 295/55r20 (32.8x12.2) Toyo AT2 they only weigh 60lbs, that's 14lbs per corner is a lot of extra rolling mass for an extra 0.4" in height and 0.2" in width.
Both have the same tread depth, but the 295's actually have a higher speed rating and greater weight capacity than the 305's.

    • So I'm in the middle of a DOD AFM delete on my 6.2 L86 Sierra. I had a pick holding the tensioner but after I got the Cam phaser gear off I was cleaning off all the rtv and apparently I didn't have the pick seated far enough in. I bumped it and the tensioner sprang forward.  I think everything is good but I want a second opinion. The top of the tensioner is just a looped piece of plastic that rides in that channel right? There is no spring or anything is there? I got the gear and chain back on and it seems tight and everything looks right. I'm hoping nothing fell out.
    • My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.
    • Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?
    • I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions. 
    • I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.
