Post your 2014+ wheel/tire set-up

[AZGMCZ71Leveled]

I am running 295/55/20 Toyo MT's with 2.5 RC level kit. Wheels are Fuel Mavericks with +14 offset

Those look fantastic

It probably wouldn't surprise you to know that the very first thing people say to me when they see my truck for the first time is "where did you get those wheels" the dealer I bought the truck from says GM should offer a truck exactly like mine with the blacked out chrome and black chrome wheels in a "SS" version right from the factory!

do you mean 305/55/20? or 50/20??

but where would it contact with a more aggressive offset? it wouldnt be the control arms , sway bar or anything on that side of the wheel (at least not the way im picturing it)

 

i just found out the wheels i want come n a +15 so thats what im probably going to go with.

my first choice wheel is the Rockstar 2's but dont wantit because it gotten too popular around here and they also list at $400-475 a pop..next Metal mulisha but its $350-400 a wheel.,..the Eagle 050 i can get for $200 a wheel and i really like it

 

so right now it looks like im going to go with Eagle 050 black +15 offset with 2.5" RC level and 285/60/20 Duratracs unless you confirm 305/55/20 then i may go with that.

 

 

Really curious how you like that nitto....how is it on ice? and dry highway?

I typed it right. I have 305/50/20. I purposely wanted the shorter tire and lower profile. I'm not and expert but I think the smaller/negative offset pushed the tire out and then the radius of the tire pivot is more and then in rubs on the inner fender. I think you can go with lower then +20 but I wouldn't do that with a 305 tire because it will stick out. I'm pretty sure a 305/55 is just fine as well. The 305s for me were cheaper then the 295s and I really wanted 305. I drive aggressively and on highways so I wanted wide with low profile. I've only had the tires for a week and never had an AT tire before. I typically drive high end sports cars and SUVs and still have them. With that in mind, I love the Terra Grapplers. Definitely feel the highway and road ridges more (it will bump you offline) and its stiffer but I think it's the tire pressure. I would definitely get them again and in the same size. It just looks right and performs as intended. Here's a picture.. I'd be happy to take and detailed pictures that you want.

would love to see some detailed pics if you get a chance.

 

i dont know what i was thinking, for some reason i thought a 50 profile didnt exist,probably just the site i was looking at for tires.

I'm not a chrome guy. My friend works for a ship and is shoot the same color and is doing grill for free. The following week the bumpers

[EaZ8]

are you just going to paint the grill you have now or getting the OEM paintable grill?

 

i heard using vinegar to etch the chrome works, and so does scotchbright to remove the chrome then you can paint it.

i love color matched grills on most cars/trucks. i painted the one on my CTS years ago.

I know it's an old post but did you mean 285/55R22? A 65 would be a huge tire.
