I ran 285/65/18 with -12 offset on my Duramax with out a leveling kit, just the bars cranked a little. Had to do some minor trimming. A 1500 with a leveling kit has to sit around the same height right? I know the 2500's sit a little higher but I don't think it is 4 inches.

I have 2.25 ready lift, with 275/70 18 duratrac (33.4x11) on 18x9 moto metal wheels with zero offset. I ended up pulling bkac the back corners of the wheel well liners. Slightly touched.

 

2500 basically have a 1+ inch factory body lift compared to the1500s.

305/55/20 Duratracs, with a 2.5 level

Any rubbing? Trimming? And how's the mileage? I am debating on a 305/55/20 or a 285/60/20

Nitto has a new. to me anyway, Exo Grappler AWT. Not a lot of sizes yet but they do have 275/65/20, seems to be the popular one. They look great.

That looks like it'll be a nice tire. It's got the snowflake symbol so it should be good in snow/ice. I wonder if it will be as good as the Duratrac. If it's close it'll be a nice alternative as it will be available in several sizes the Duratracs aren't.

I like the look of them. Seem similar to the Duratracs. I will be looking forward to reviews, hopefully soon.

I have seen in another forum that 295/60/20 fit on a 2.5" level kit, so I was wondering if the 285/70/18 or the 295/70/18 would also fit on a 2.5" level? On stock wheels?

 

Here are the sizes of those tires:

 

295/60/20 = 33.9 x 11.61

285/70/18 = 33.7 x 11.22

295/70/18 = 34.3 x 11.61

 

Here is the link that I got the specs from:

I hope the link works.

 

Thanks in advance.

so guys i need a little help i have a 2014 gmc sierra slt im going to be running the icon or king coil overs set up at 3" with uniball uppers, im trying to decide on tires im thinking 275/65/20 or a 295/60/20 my rims are a fuel 20x9 +1 offset what do you guys think?

It also depends on what tire you want to run brand wise. some sizes are aren't available by all. 275/65/20 is a very open choice. It also depends how you like the width to look. Personally, I prefer the wider variants as long as there is still some good sidewall.

2" level with 18" wheels 33x12.50 and -24 offset will they fit?

For the Nitto Terra's the weights are around 60 lbs for 275/65/20 and 68 lbs for 295/60/20 (I think. they removed weights from their site)

For the Toyo AT II's the weights are around 57 lbs for 275/65/20 and 62 lbs for 295/60/20

 

The Toyos seem to be a bit lighter, if the weights for the Nittos are correct. I found those on a random site. Haven't heard anything bad about either tire so really it comes down to looks and road noise if that's an issue. From reading, I think the Terra might be quieter, not that the Toyos are loud. There are lots of reviews going around though.

No, that is way to much offset for a 2" level…

The one on the bottom is running a 4" lift and 9", 0 offset wheels. Took a good bit of trimming to make them fit. I saw the cutting he had to do first hand. The 275 should be close to an inch narrower so should have a better chance however I think you could have issues even with those tires with the wheel offset you are looking at. If cutting doesn't bother you by all means go 295s

I'd rather not cut, I know the black denali is running the 275/65 without cutting or trimming on a +20 rim.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
