With a level you can do 285 65 18 I'd think. 275 65 18 I ran at stock height with lots of room.

My best guess would be 275/65r18

 

 

If im not mistaken the stock 265 65 18s i just came from are very comparable

Looks good. Is the ride better over the 275/55/20. The goodyear 275/55/20 that came on my truck were flat spotted when i bought it. I drove it for 1000 miles but it never went away . The dealer replaced them with Michelin m/s 2 that I requested. The goodyears road better than the michelin because of the higher tread wear number or just a harder rubber just feels like you feel every little thing on the road. Are you getting any tire rub on the fender liners.

 

Thanks

Am I correct in thinking a 20x10 -24 wheel and a 20x12 -44 wheel with a 35x12.5 tire will stick out the same amount its just that the 12 wide will expand the tire to the full width? since both wheels have a 5" backspacing.

Ok Fellas, New to the site and need your help. Out with the old and in with the new. I am retiring my trusty 07 SLT and just picked up my new Steel Grey Metallic SLT.

 

As you can see I went with 22's on the 07 but thinking about going with a different look for the 15. Let me know what you think! If I go street on the 15 I am thinking of upgrading to the hyper black CK190s from a Denali with 305s.

 

If I go a little more aggressive I am thinking 20's or 22's with Terra Grapplers, just not sure how big I can go. I've seen some trucks on here with 285's or 295's on 20's with just a level. Wondering if I can fit 22"s with an aggressive tread like the Nitto's or Toyos and how large I can go to really fill up the wheel wells without rubbing.

 

To help out I just ordered Fox 2.0 Coil-overs for a level up front. Would appreciate any help you guys can provide! Glad to be part of the site.

Welcome! And i too am pondering a similar situation. I have 22"s on 305 40 22 street tires on a 2" level. I have been exploring options of a tire upgrade. I really want some A/Ts but other than nitto grapplers, the pickings are slim. I would like to run a 305 45 22 or maybe a 285 50 22, both of which equal to roughly a 33" total setup, which im told is the max a can run and shouldnt have any rubbing issues with. Of course this all depends on the offset of the wheels you decide to run. But i too would like to hear any input on this. Edited by dbcooper748

Wendys, I saw that you got the black pro comp lug nuts. Did you get black wheel locks as well? If so which ones did you get? It doesn't look like there's locks on them in the pics but curious if you wound up ordering some? I'm going to order some, just don't want to get ones that are longer than the pro comp lugs. Thanks in advance!

 

Anybody feel free to chime in as well!

I don't have the exact part number on me. But the ones I got are all keyed lug nuts.

I posted this pic a couple of pages ago. Running 305/45/22 Terra Grapplers with no change to the suspension. Only slight rubbing in reverse at full-lock. Rides a bit stiffer than stock, but it's not terrible. The sidewall on the 285/45/22s was just a bit too short for my liking.

This setup looks so good. Can you post some more pics? Like some shots down the side and from the front and rear? I've got a set of 20s with 305/55s in my garage but these trucks look so Good with 22s that I'm rethinking my choices.

Thats good to hear. I wonder if 305 45 22s would still rub with my 2" level... when you are at full lock, and rubbing can u see if this looks like it would still be an issue if it was leveled?

    • So you're saying toss the baby out with the bathwater? @txab posted article was her take on how AI can be used to manipulate pricing as it already does and has been rebuked by the judiciasry in housing. How AI can be and is used to maximize refinery or even Amazon operations all of which are true but because she is who she is; that makes what she says about what is true, false? Is that something akin to Pre-justice aka prejudice?    Look, I'm first in line to approach all information with caution just because we live in a world where people like to lie about someone or something with such a straight face and in such volume that it makes digging to the truth wearisome. Meaning I understand the skepticisms but if I were to toss out everything a person is for a view they hold then my pool of people to draw wisdom from would be non-existent and I'd be forced to reinvent the wheel daily. Not practical.    "Be innocent as a dove but as cautious as a serpent."    Test each word. Every good lie is part truth or no one would believe it. Find the truth in it and reject what isn't.    On this one, AI is being used to do what has been done by hand for hundreds of years already but at such speed, the point of a computer, that it is more easily monetized. This one wasn't that hard a lift.    I wrote a few formulas in a Lotus 123 program decades ago, a series of linked Macros actually, that allowed a daily inventory to be turned into a running P&L and production plan. Something that took three departments a week to assemble now took the time it takes to input the 'daily changes' in inventory. Later that was ungraded to the more powerful Excel program an and integrated with bar code scanning, inventory to supply was done once per shift. It had a huge impact on production scheduling, Seamless interruption flexibility, inventory error reduction, raw materials cost effective utilization and scrap reduction. Huge improvement in the bottom line. I spent months on that and AI could have done it in minutes. So yes, it not only can be used, they would be foolish to not try. The legality, ethics and morality are not the domain of AI. Humans need to keep a reign on it. 
    • New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.
