Added these rims/tires today...attachicon.gif2016-02-25 18.54.54.jpgattachicon.gif2016-02-25 18.00.41.jpg

 

Nice looking rims.. thanks for the vote

Not today but Saturday.. question is... which wheel?

I vote the black ones in the rear. That little touch of chrome in the wheel goes perfect with the chrome that is already on the truck without being overbearing.

I agree the black ones will look good too! My thinking is that ive seen quite a few trucks with the black ones like that, but the fronts... im not sure ive ever seen a K2 with those wheels... plus im obviously partial to chrome lol! Dont think you can go wrong either way! Nice choices there!

thanks guys.. now you know why I'm struggling with the choice.. I've never seen chrome switchblades like the front, which makes me lean that way.. then I look at the black and think they look great too.. killing me...

I like the front one.

 

 

Thanks for the vote

Installed a diablosport tune [emoji2]

Throttle lag is taken out, Trans shifts faster and a tad firmer, feels quicker but that's just my mind probably lol. May adjust it to hard shift and see how I like it. I'm running the e85/ 91 octane tune

I tried the firm for a few weeks but just changed back to hard this past weekend which I prefer along with the 91/flex tune (typically use e85).

 

But what did I do to my K2 today? Keep it out of the ditch 4 wheelin to work in the snow this morning and then emptied the nasty gunk out of the catch can when I got home. Just another typical day in Michigan.

Are you planning on color matching the chrome trim and handles? If so, then back ones.

I plan on keeping the chrome accents... thanks

My vote would then be, the black.

looks good . Now for the rims ?????

Thanks!

 

I actually kinda like the stock wheels. One day I might do wheels since I plan on keeping the truck for 10+ years. I'd rather get rid of the stock tires first. Not impressed with them at all.

    • Have considered installing a DC to DC charger in your camper to replace your isolator?  
    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • 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?
