Precedent owner of mine bought this one...too much for me but...what a beast !!! RC 7" lift if I remember and 33" tires.

I currently have a '17 Silverado 1500 LT CC and the stock tires are starting to lose traction. It has 35k miles on them and figured the Michelin tires would last longer from the dealer but we all know they put the cheapest possible tire on it. Either way, I've been trying to figure out what tires and wheels to get. I do have a 2.5" level kit that I have to install, but was going to wait until I got new tires and wheels.

With the 2.5" level and if I keep the 18x9 wheels setup, what would be best possible solution where it looks rugged but wont require trimming. I don't need LT tires because I don't have anything to tow on a RWD, but two options I'm looking at. Since I do travel a lot with my kids, I prefer to get tires that have the all terrain look but also keeps road noise minimal in highways.

Nitto G2s and I like the Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus, 275-65-18. I like the wider look, actually I prefer the wider look but I'm not sure what would be the max width.

As far as wheels, I would try to keep it at the 18x9 at a -12mm off set.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

NEW to the site here. i just bought a 2014 LT Texas Edition im looking to do alot to in the next couple of months. so far ive bought:

Borla ATAK full catback

JDM Astar leds (low beams, fogs, turning, reverse)

Soler Performance Throttle controller

RC 5in Lift kit

RC Traction bars

Bilstein 5100s all around

unfortunately i haven't had time to install anything and to be honest im hoping to do everything when i install the lift kit once i get my wheel setup. heres a pic of the way she sits after a detail and yes im keeping the camper. the grill guard will come off once i convert the front end to a 2016 front end.

$1.35!!? I would drive all day! That’s amazing we are right over 4 dollars here in socialist California, it sucks! Great looking truck by the way.

Here in the Antelope Valley (Lancaster/Palmdale) area, it's been hanging $3.379/3.479/3.579 (FasTrip in Rosamond, cheapest in 50 miles from me), for over a month.

NICE! My boys that do my powder coating are right there in your area in Palmdale. They’re one of the best in the business. I’ll actually be taking all my new components down there into weeks. I have to remind myself to fuel up before I leave haha

Here's my 2019 Silverado 1500 LD. So far I've added a 3.5" RC suspension lift, 17" Rockstar wheels on 33" Toyo tires, Borla ATAK exhaust with black tips, black running boards, tinted windows, added leather interior, swapped in all Memphis Audio speakers with 700 watt amp and two 10" subs.

Next thing I'm doing is swapping out all the chrome pieces for color matched. Eventually I'd like the truck to be all silver and black. That includes the 4x4 emblems, Chevy emblems, and lettering if I don't remove it altogether. Tail lights smoked as well.

I love the tire size ! 35" ? Which axle ratio ? And I love the 2014-2015 front fascia when lifted. More classic truck like than 2016+ (which I like a lot too )

315/70/17s which comes out to about 34-34.5”. Truck has the 3.23 gear ratio. The 14-15 front end is definitely still my favorite. Classic Silverado lines.

No, but I can ask him. And the tires are 35x12.5 on 20" wheels.

I have a 2017 Silverado 1500 CC planning to put the 2" RC front level kit.

Which set up would give me the more beefy look without rubbing or trimming?

-275x65x18 or 285x70x17

As far as wheels, I'm thinking doing -12mm offset and 17/18x9.

Help would be appreciated.

Picture provided. My stock tires are due for tire change, so I might as well upgrade.

When the starter dies on vacation...... 47K miles and the solenoid was so corroded that it spilt.

After doing more research, Rough Country says going 285x70x17 with a -12mm offset is outside of the recommended specs and some did have to trim. Can anyone confirm this? I am only doing a 2in RC leveling kit, which is this one.
