That is one of the sizes I am strongly considering in Toyo AT II's. In the leveling kit thread, http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/153363-2014-leveling-kits/page-39, those that have 275/70/18's with a 2.5" level, said there is a lot more room for a wider tire. I am also planning a 1.5" body lift as well when the time comes. But it sounds like it would work. Also, I am planning on running the stock Z71 wheels. The offset will be they key factor.

There's a member on here running 305/60r18 Toyos on stock wheels WITHOUT a leveling kit on his Sierra. 295s should be no problem.

Is there anyone running a 295 70 r18 on the stock z71 wheels? I want to do this set up with a RC2.5" level but im afraid it will rub too much. Any opinions?

 

That is the exact same setup that I want to run as well. I already have the RC 2.5" level kit (not installed yet) but am curious about the tires as well on stock Z71 rims. I had that setup on my 2013 F150 (2.5" level, and didn't have any issues at all), I am hoping for the same result on this 2014 Chevy.

Also, the 295/70/18's are just over an inch taller 34.3 vs 33.2 and 11.61 vs 10.83 width. So, is there room both directions?

I'll double check tomorrow and let you know but i'm sure you will have no problem

As suggested in another thread, I figured I'd try to get this going. It'd be really cool if all the 2014+ forum members would post your wheel/tire set-up in a central location.

 

Post some pics, and include details on sizes, offset, backspace, lifts, levels etc.

 

Also tell us about any rubbing and/or trimming required to run your set-up.

 

Thanks

 

Just throwing it out there but when this post started, did anyone else find it more helpful and useful. When the posted topics were exactly what Blue set them out to be when you started the section? The posts were simple, photos, with all the required info needed if anyone else wanted to put them on their truck. Now, we've got reposts with the original photos shown again and you have to scroll through pages of info just to get to the useful stuff. I thought when it started that it was going to be posts of the setups and if there were any questions about it - PM that person. Maybe I'm out to lunch on what this was suppose to be but I just found it a lot more useful when it started.

Nice! Are those Boss 330's or U2's? (both look similar)

      Do you keep your tires at full capacity? 80psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Are you using a weight distribution hitch system with your trailer as that alone can change the actual tire pressure requirements needed. It would prove interesting to see what the actual individual axle weights are on your truck when you are hooked up to the trailer. In fact when your hooked to the trailer, typically if anything unless it has a large capacity weight distribution system that is over cranked, often the weight on the front axle will be less when hooked up vs driving empty and certainly if one doesn't have a weight distribution hitch. Really the only times one may get up there with weight on the steer axle is if there was a snow plow mounted on the front or a motorcycle on a rack or with a very large jockey tank full of fuel at the front of the box that transfers a bit of its weight to the front axle.

      Great info here thank you. I just joined, we have a 2014 Silverado truck we bought about 4 years ago with less than 5,000 miles on it. It has approximately 24,000 on it now. It appears to have all the standard issues that people are talking about. Occasional charging problems especially using 110 volt, occasional blinking triangle where nothing will turn on when first starting the truck but it will reset itself if you wait 10 to 15 minutes. Noisy coupler between the flywheel and the generator. Our truck is speed limited to 74 mph, is there any way to change that? The latest issue we have been dealing with is when driving long distance on the highway at full speed the generator does not keep the batteries charged. The meter will go into the yellow/red border Zone for charge status and the yellow triangle will illuminate solid but the generator will not keep the battery charged, not sure why the controller doesn't tell the gas engine to increase RPM to increase generator output it usually stays well below 25 kilowatts even though the battery is discharging and I have to slow down the highway to 45 mph and eventually pull over and let the truck idle to charge the battery so I can continue driving at speed. Has anyone had this issue before or have any idea how to diagnosed it? When via Motors was around it they were very helpful at troubleshooting. This becomes much if the Terrain is hilly and you're towing a small trailer

      Tonneau cover that does not leak water

      By Z45 · Posted

      I have the GMC accessory (REV) cover installed by dealer. Ordered with the truck.  They did a very good install job, can't find a single issue. Some water gets in around the tailgate but no where else.  You can see daylight around the tailgate but that's not the covers fault.  Installation is means everything. Guys at my dealer were seasoned pros, not inexperienced here today good tomorrow types, like many dealers employ for these jobs.   I don't mind paying for a professional job.

      Like others have said, they will all leak. Mainly at the corners.   I have owned several and the best has been my current one. Revolver x4

      LCA bolts

      By calgator73 · Posted

      About 8 months after an alignment job by the dealer I started experiencing a pretty significant clunk in the front end on hard left hand turns usually parking lot speeds almost at lock.  Occasionally get the same on hard rights too.   Discovered that the lower control arm attachment bolts are TTY and only to be used for a single use. And then I found some evidence of a TSB that indicates you can over torque those fasteners to about 130 foot pounds.   Asked a local shop to investigate and they found 3 out of four bolts loose and retorqued.   I've ordered the MOOG    K100421 lower control arm bolt kit that is completely reusable and not TTY.    Is the 80 ft pounds a realistic number?  Anyone have experience with those bolts?
