That is a stock size, 255/70/17 , however the truck came with 275/55/20 so they look kinda small to me now. Especially considering I had installed 275/60/20's that were 33.1" tall. 

I'll go to another 33 on these wheels ( 17") and probably keep a stock 265/65/18 on my 18" wheels for trips, winter ,etc. I'm loving my mileage now though. It's rate if I'm empty to get under 20 mpg. Even with a 6.2. 

The more I drove with the smaller tires the more I like them. I had a shake with the 20's so I traded for 17's for more side wall and almost 40# lighter per wheel/ tire. 

My '00 Silverado came stock with 235 width tires, my '09 came with 245 and my '15 came with 255's.  I tried heavier, larger tires on my last truck and the improved look wasn't worth the sluggish feel and poorer gas mileage.  In 2000 upgrading to 255's on 17's would have looked awesome.  I'm simply enjoying large wheels by earlier standards!

Hook up led plate lights and reverse lights.

Got my dash cam hooked upc04214cdfb0b7557c25dc4ee688bcec9.jpg

Have a bunch of red Silverado logos so tried one on the front really hard to make it look straight because of the slight decline/incline

I took my truck to my buddy’s shop so he could put some matte black vinyl on the hood. I’m really happy with the look and it reduces the glare. 3938bafca23a951de6651d7c35b34f44.jpg5d43d60b210c2ab3462d1f58e179a460.jpg

Just read your Signature, made me laugh and reminisce at the same time. This was my ZR2 when I was young. Stcker was on for an off road weekend with a bunch of buddies. The ZR2 upstaged all but one Jeep (A brand new Rubicon) that weekend.

I do miss that truck, it was unstoppable.

I had a shop replace the chrome emblems that come with the truck (and really look out of place on the Rally editions) with black emblems.  I had a custom RALLY emblem made up to replace the LT on the tailgate.  Ordered all these on eBay.  The RALLY emblem was a custom that one of the sellers agreed to do for me at a very reasonable $20.  The black is so much better than the chrome on this model/color scheme.  Couldn't be happier with this mod.  Note the lettering perfectly straight though the picture does not look like it is.  Not sure if this is due to the rain or a strange picture angle or what.

9 hour detail session on the truck. Interior vacuumed, leather conditioned, floor liners cleaned, engine bay detailed, foam bath, hand dry, full clay bar, and extreme depth carnauba wax + x seal, windows cleaned and topped off with extreme wheel shine.

Love my Bullet Liner as well.  Only had it a few months so far but they did a great job and it looks great.

Had my front valance off for a while and was really happy with it but still wanted it to be even at the bottom, so I cut the bottom of the valance off and reinstalled it. Got the idea from Swirvn

What did you use to cut?  Jigsaw, grinder with cutoff wheel?  Looks good!

Also is your Sierra Leveled in the front?

I used a Dremel cutting tool that I bought at Lowe's over the weekend on sale. I had been wanting to do this for over a few months but didn't have anything to cut it with until now. I just followed the curve/bend in the valance. I had to have my daughter help hold the valance as I cut it to keep it from flopping all over the place. 

 

Yes I have a 1 1/2" level kit on the front. Didn't want to go the full 2"s.

    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
    • My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.    
    • I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w
    • I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
