Well technically speaking it varies per manufacturer. I mean by default spec a 295/55/20 is 32.8"x11.61"x20, Toyo's measurements however for their MT 295/55/20 are 33"x12.2x20. I really just wanted to see the RT in 295/55/20. I don't think ill have enough clearance to run 305/55/20s and honestly 295/55/20s will be pushing it i believe.

 

I mean we're talking tenths of inches here and there per manufacturer difference to default spec but it is indeed a difference. I had just read that 33x12.5x20 rub with stock offset on the 14s. Also for some reason i picture 33x12.5x20 being a fat looking tire, which i don't really want. Want a balance between the two. Like my friends 285/70/18s, granted it's a 34" tire it being 11.5" width looks perfect.

why not look at 285 size tires then?

Well having looked at a lot of 2" leveling kits I think I'll be able to clear 295/55/20s. Wanting to go 33 in diameter. Should fill up the wheel well quite nice.

i wouldn't be afraid to go 33x12.50x20 if i were you, but those should look great as well.

Guys,

I really like the Michelin LTX/MS2 275/65/20 tires.

BUT I don't want to do the body lift.

I am ok with a front level, but again, I don't want to raise the rear.

So, with just a level what is the biggest tire I can go without having to cut anything.

My goal is to get more rubber between rim and road.

Truck is a 14 Sierra Denali 1500

Thanks,

Guys have been running the 275/60/20's with a 2.25-2.5" front level. Some have rubbed a little bit on the fender liner, some haven't. It's about the limit. That tire isn't very wide, but it's over 34" tall, so that's why it rubs. A safe bet would be the 275/60/20. It's the same width, but only 33" tall.

Ok just went through entire thread but looking for clarification. I have a 14 Silverado and putting a 2.5" rc leveling kit with 275/70/18 tires. Found a set of rims that are 18x9 0 offset. Will this setup work?

I'm running 285/65s on 18x9 with 0 offset. You should be fine. Your tires will be slightly taller and skinnier than mine and I still have room for more tire.

So I got a set of Hankook AT-M 305/55/R20s today with about 70 percent tread on em for 200 bucks. My question is with a 2 inch rc leveling kit will they fit and not rub? He said that he will give me my money back if they don't fit but I hate to do that really. They measure at 33.2 overall diameter but i dont know if they will hit being a wider tire? Anybody got anything?

I've got a 305/55/20 on a 2.25 inch Pro Comp level and there is no rub...I have pictures under my profile if you want to have a look.

Honestly I think they will rub a bit.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      By jaszr2 · Posted

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
