My 2014 denali lifted with wheels


Recommended Posts

Posted

2014 white diamond tri-coat denali. I did the rough country 2.5 suspension kit. Rbp 94r wheels, 20x9 +10 offset. Tires are toyo at2 295/55r20. It doesn't rub at all but it's very close. There's no way 305's would fit without it rubbing. The +10 offset pushed me a little less then a half inch out from stock, so if I would have put these tires on the stock wheels it would probably rub the sway bar and the wheel liner at full lock. Couldn't be happier with the outcome. The truck still rides very good, but the heavier tires take a little more gas pedal to keep the truck rolling. Definitely won't be hitting those 20 mpg numbers anymore, but that's not why I bought a truck anyway!yta3y9ag.jpggajeguny.jpguhabysud.jpg

I also went with the Toyo Open Country MT 295/55/R20's installed on my '14 K1500 Denali today using OEM wheels (0-offset) with 2"RC front leveling kit, no rear lift. Seems to work well given the approx 1" gain in tire height and width while maintaining plenty of clearance all around.

 

Contemplated going with the 305's but as others point out, I would have had to cut front inner fender liners and trim forward rear splash guards or otherwise do a higher lift neither of which I didn't want to do.

 

Generally pleased with the outcome and appearance without sacrificing too much in terms of ride quality. Next step will be to figure out if I can stow a same size spare underneath it.

A few more photos of my truck with the Toyo 295/55/R20s and with the 2" front only RC leveling kit.

Is it noisy on the HW?

 

Love the way it looks!

It makes some noise, not a ton though. Just a light hum. I had terra grapplers on my silverado before this and the toyos aren't any louder then that. In my opinion these tires look a little more aggressive then the nittos too. You definitely notice the weight of these compared to stock though.

    • Breaking News!    I'm going to tell you that I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I told  you.  Then I'm going to tell you what I'm about to tell you on the other side of the break.  Then we're going to break. Then I'm not going to tell you what I told you I was going to tell you.  But I'll tell you something else that is Breaking News just coming to the desk that everyone reported on yesterday.  Then I'll tease a human interest telling I'll get to on the other side of a larger break. Then I'll tell you one item in 20 seconds and go back to an even longer break. Longest break of the night.  Then I'll tell you a fluff piece that takes 10 seconds and sign off into a three minute break while you wait for the next 30 minutes of rinse and repeat on the local news.    In al you'll get about 12 minutes of something, 5 minutes of which is worth hearing in a 30 minute show and 18 minutes of advertising at a sound level twice as loud as the news.    Of course you can switch to cable news and hear 12 different people tell the same four stories in much the same format as the Network News for 20 hours of which the majority will be advertising.  And four hours of late night Specials about things you wonder why you stayed up to listen to. Half of which will be repeats.....   OR you can go for a drive  
    • Did you ever figure this out? My 2022 Trail Boss, and now my 2026 LT did this from time to time.  I believe it was more connected to Android Auto and my phone being the cause. Maybe try going for a drive, sans cell phone.... and see if it happens? 
    • I have a 2026 Silverado LT, the non bose as well.  Upgrading the door speakers is pretty straightforward. You could honestly go to walmart, or Auto Zone/ O Reilly and get a set of 6x9s for the front, and 6.5s for the rear. You do also have to get some adapters for each, but they are like $10 a pair on Amazon. Then some plug and play harnesses that are about $10 a pair on Amazon as well.  And I would also suggest a 10 pack of the Amazon Basics sound deadening. Slap that all around the speakers and on the open metal of the inside of the door. And your golden.   I am currently doing this with my Silverado. Although I am having a bit of trouble because I am snooby I guess and bought some Alpine S2 S69c's which are 2 way components and I am having to wire from the door up to the dash....  Having never installed speakers before, its taking me just a bit to get everything correct. But if you dont buy expensive component speakers, and just some $40-$50 door speakers. You will DRASTICALLY improve the sound over these stock paper cone junk speakers. I thought my Silverado had an issue with the radio/ sound for a while.  Come to find out.  The stock speakers are just THAT SH*TTY   I cannot wait to have some decent sound in the truck   What did you end up doing?
    • Its all automatic based on yaw sensor data.  If enough incline is detected, it engages.   My recommendation though would be to disengage it before driving off and not let it auto disengage by touching the gas pedal.  The HD trucks use the same setup as prior years, the drum in hat park brake.  But now with an electric actuator.  If you drive off repeatedly over time, it can torque the park brake shoes and can also prematurely wear them out.           Electric console shift will set the park brake on flat ground too.  Pretty sure they've got it programmed to activate every time.  
    • Anyone install a a supercharger on your 6.6L L8T? Talk to me...
