Love the wheels! I’m thinking of getting those too. How do you like them? What size of tires are those?

I went with these cuz I was tired of the chrome CK375s I had on! I love the way it looks. I just need to black out the honeycomb on the grill. I ended up getting Michelin Defenders 285/45/22 from Discount. Dealership recommended I balance them with 20lbs or less. No issues whatsoever and rides smooth.

They're made by Bulletproof Bumpers.. but the shop i deal with has them custom made with their logo on it, Farleys Truck & Auto Addictions. 

 

CNC cut stainless steel kickback to clear larger tires, heavy duty rubber with all stainless hardware. These are the 12" wide, black powdercoat... but you can get them in plenty of different sizes.

285 does in fact determine height as well. Go look at 285/55, 295/55 and 305/55. Both the 295 and 305 is taller than the 285. The 305/55 comes in nearly a inch taller than 285/55. 

The dimensions of a 285/65r18 tire are 11.22” wide (section width) & 32.6” tall (outside dia)

The section width is 285mm wide  (There are 25.4mm to an inch)

STEP 1) 285mm divided by 25.4” = 11.22” (section width)

STEP 2) Multiply 11.22 (section width) by .65 (aspect ratio)

11.22 x .65 = 7.29” (section height)

To find the outside diameter

Multiply 7.29 (section height) x 2 then add rim diameter

STEP 3) 7.29” x 2 =  14.58” + 18.0” = 32.58” round out to 32.6  (outside dia)

You shouldn't be squatting with the RC block in the rear and 5100's up front. If anything the front should still be lower.

I agree. I believe they left the top spacer on top of the shocks and only pulled out the bottom spacer part of the RC level kit. I had the shocks put on at the same times as the wheels. There is a little squat, this picture makes it look like there is more than it does in person.

The shop I had put the shocks and wheels on did some trimming, not sure exactly what, but even with the trimming it only rubs in reverse at almost full lock on the left. Weird, not the right but only left. And its very little. Once I get past a certain angle and get to full lock theres no rub.

Has any of you went from a Zone 4.5” lift to the 6.5”? Tossing the idea around... PFA

It’s just blocks and strut spacers, very easy. I did it on my ‘13

    • I have never seen GM instructions for the other trucks as per the HD with the 6 speed or the half tons but had got the impression that the HD trucks with the 6 speed were not having the same problem that the 10 speed and pan presented. Also video that I have seen of the HD 10 speed with the gas engine starting in 2024 model year showed that it was a real struggle to even make it work when pulling down hard on the exhaust after undoing the exhaust hanger bracket on the side of the transmission as after all there is little room for the pipe to even go down behind the Y joint as it soon would hit a frame cross member. Also that they had tried just like I did with the gasket off and no way was that pan coming out any way they tried to manipulate the pan. From that as well as the local transmission shop talking about the pain in the rear issue, I was not expecting my pan to come out because GM shows it was not even intended to come out without dealing with the exhaust piping.    It would be nice to claim, here's what you do and its easy to remove the pan guaranteed on any HD truck with the gas 10 speed but dollars to donuts the next guy trying what I did would not have the same luck as the exhaust was just manufactured slightly different and be pissed off at my claim that the pan comes out with no issue. Its more of a try and see if your particular truck might work like mine did .... or not !. 
    • Sorry I didn't see this until now, but it works on both the 6 speed and 10 speeds, as well as all the half tons too.
    • Hello, I have a 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 that I recently changed both motor mounts on due to the driver's side being blown out. After replacement I seem to have a steady vibration that I can feel in the pedals and the back of the seat. At this point I'm convinced that the aftermarket "Anchor" branded mounts I used are not performing as well as OE, the only real reason I ended up using the mounts in question was because my local dealers were out a few months to get a Driver's side mount. I've tried "Neutralizing" the mounts according to the motor mount TSB published for these truck to no avail. My trans mount is also in great shape and seems to be absorbing vibrations swimmingly. As far as I can tell there is no issues idling, my idle RPM is steady and I've recently put GM plugs and wires on, however, I have not cleaned the throttle body or intake valves. Any one else have a similar experience with aftermarket mounts? Patience certainly is a virtue that I wish I exercised here. Thank you!
    • I still saw people out for runs, on their bikes/motorcylces, jeeps with the doors off driving around here the past 2 days. I guess we are just used to it here haha.   Tasted like a bonfire the last 2 days.
    • The TCM has to be flashed before it can drive.   If you installed it the way it is, it has the OS (operating system/program) from the 2010 truck you got it from. That will not match with the VIN/OS pair that your 2013 truck has.   You can do the full install. Then tow it to a dealership and they can flash the trucks PCM/TCM with the latest program for your VIN.
