Anyone successfully installed 305/55R20 Terra Graps on 2014 Silverado

All... doing the tire shopping thang... i just had my truck leveled with a pro comp front kit at 2.25. I have been shopping and everyone at the tire shops are swearing that the nitto terra grapplers at 305/55R20 will fit on stock 2014 20 inch rims with no rub issues. The Terra Grapplers at this size are actually 33.07 X 12.6. I am looking at these due to the light weight and good track record with folks.57lbs for an LT is pretty good. i am iffy on the "they fit no rub" as i think they will rub on the sway bar, but several shops have stated the same. I have seen on this forum others who have gone to bigger tires on stocks and say they get a slight rub on the sway at full lock but a lot of those folks are into the mudder class of tires which throws things a bit since they have knobbies that stick out of the side walls. The Terra Grapplers are fairly tame in that area. So the question again.... Any one out there with a 2014 and stock 20s successfully installed this tire and size on their truck?

They will rub. There are a few threads on here that say so. Although they don't necessarily mention that exact tire, just the size.

A friend of mine has the 2.25" ready lift kit on his with 305/55/20 terra graps on his and he doesn't rub. I think every truck is different though. I've seen a few 2014's with just a 2" kit like mine on it and the truck sits level and could fit this size and tire under it.....but mine with the 2" kit is not quite level and I dont think I could fit 305's without some rubbing.

 

But his works fine.....

Yes on a 3.5" RC lift kit and no the 305/55/20 Nitto's will not rub with that kit. From what the lift shop tells me you can use the 2.5" but you might get the occasional rub and have to trim.

 

If you get the 305/55/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers make sure you get the metrics and not the LT's. (6 ply vs 10 ply unless you do not care about the ride)

Newbie here......I will get some pics up tomorrow. I have a 2014 Silverado 2wd that I just put a RC 2.5 level and Terra grapplers (305/55R20) that I put on stock rims. I have slight rubbing at back of liner on full lock only. No other rubbing that I can tell during daily driving at this time. I love the set up.

How has this set up been for you so far? I'm planning on doing the same thing soon.

Its been great. I have changed from the stockers to some aftermarket rims with a +10 offset and it actually doesn't rub as much anymore in reverse. Wouldn't change anything else.

    • Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.   
    • I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future. 
    • Lets see if I can sum up two pages of nothing useful.    You want to refute your own governments data of the "Purchasing Power" Index FOR THE ENTIRE USA and its territories replacing it with the experience of a single family and its business and label that reality?  Then pound on that for a week hoping it will find traction?    Stan, I've told you several times. I don't do irrational. There are more people in the USA than your family.    I'm pretty sure this tread is so blown up. I'll give you a few days or months if need be to post yourself silent then I'll see if I can find enough parts of the train to reassemble it. 
    • Facebook groups hate VSE, poor customer service; their responses to criticisms are pretty poor for a reputable company. I'm not a customer, haven't bought anything from them, but how they handle themselves on social media is a definite "No" for me. 
    • $10,000 for a transmission?   Pretty sure I could buy all the parts, tools, and education to rebuild it myself for a quarter of that amount.   or swap it out with a new one...
