This is perfect imo. What's the offset on those wheels?

Man, I dig those wheels. What offset you go with and what size rubber?

0 offset which puts the 285/70/17's in perfect alignment with the RB10 running boards. The wheel/tire package really helps tie everything together.

Why don't they make 18" in 0? Only +18 or -12. Drives me nuts.

Haha, neither am I but sometimes its worth it to complete a look. I've spent more than twice as much on one wheel as I spent on this entire set of Methods. They're really a great deal for what you get.

Just sent mine off to get powdercoated in satin black. Also ordered BFG KO2's in 275/60/20. Should all be put together next week!

Guessing you liked the Plasti-Dip so much that you decided to opt out for a more permanent finish?

 

And I just upgraded my Dad's F150 from the Pirellis to that same size Ko2, its such a nice tire. Very aggressive for an AT and only a "D" load.

The plastidip gave me a good idea. I hated cleaning the plastidip but I liked that it was easy to touch up. I didn't like the idea of putting new tires on and having to redo the plastidip. I wanted something more permanent and classier looking haha.

 

Glad to hear it. Did you or he find them to be too stiff? As in giving a rough ride?

I drove it the day we got them put on and they don't feel too much different than stock. The added sidewall height really helps out.

    • HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and maybe memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.        
    • I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it. 
    • So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29. 
    • Any grease on the stud threads of any kind?   Wheel studs should have NOTHING on them for proper torquing and so the nuts don't back off.     Are all of the mating surfaces clean?  So wheel, rotor and hub?     We've had plenty of trucks at work with that wheel, this is a first to me.  Makes me think they've got a lube tech putting anti-seize on all the wheel studs or some kind of grease, and they need to stop doing that.  To have 11 other trucks with the same exact problem.      
    • I was a Chevy guy for years, then switched to GMC because I liked the looks better.  I'm actually thinking I like the Chevy looks better than GMC for the first time in a lot of years.   One thing I know for certain, the new GMC dash is hideous!  Chevy wins this one!
