So I have a 2014 1500 with a 2 inch Motofab level kit in the front only (See picture). I’m looking to upgrade my wheels and tires, I want my truck to have a stance to it. I seen a set up it was 20X12 -51 off set with 275/55R20 and was wondering would that hurt anything and cause major rubbing issues with that big of an off set? What would you all prefer I get to have a decent stance?

Thanks!

I'm one of those that researched and researched and used this 2014+ thread many times to browse pics and fitments. Figured I'd throw mine on here to help the next guy. 2018 SLT 4x4 Z71 package Onyx Black with Cocoa Dune interior. 

 

First pic is the day it was delivered to my driveway. Here's what I've done:

--Tint front two windows

--Removed front air dam

--Removed stock step rails

--Color Matched GMC front and back

--2" Rough Country Leveling Kit up front (the 1" spacer under the strut) - stock in the rear

--Fuel Maverick Gloss Black and Milled (20x9 with +1 offset) - I wanted to go for more stance and read where +1 Mavericks would fit. The gloss black complements that new black paint as opposed to the matte. The milled edges bring out the chrome just enough to tie it all together (I'm not a huge fan of the all blackout).

--Nitto Ridge Grapplers 295/55/20. Also didn't realize the Ridge Grapplers had two different reversible sidewalls...I decided on the more uniform sidewall that has more "chunk" so to speak. They are absolutely awesome looking tires. Have some road noise but nothing major. 

 

I noticed on my camera that the gloss black nerf style step bars arrived today so I'll throw those on this weekend. I wanted to go for more a stockish look but with a little meaner stance and the +1's accomplished that. At full lock there is a very minor rub on the inner fender liner but I'll zip tie it back and be good to go.

Not exactly the snowflakes....these are 35's. 

 

@14SerriaAT, nice truck...love the Ridge Grapplers on the stockers (we'll see about longevity, ha!)

I am looking at either a 285 55 20    295 55 20 or even a 275 60 20 in the Ridge Grappler.

Factory is 275 55 20

I just want a little taller and a little more width.

Ride Grapplers have the reversible sidewall look which I recently found out about and like :thumbs:

285/55/20 is 32.6 x 11.69

295/55/20 is 32.76 x 12.17

305/55/20 is 33.23 x 12.44

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
