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.

 

Here you go (FYI - I have no idea how to make the pictures show up as large images)

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?

 

I believe I've read that others are running 305/45/22s with a 2" level and had no rubbing. I looked last night and I don't see any signs of rubbing anywhere. There's no marks on the wheel liner or sway bar.

Thanks for the insight guys. So here's the bigger question. If you're running 305/45r22s with no level and no rubbing, how much larger could you go with a level? Any idea how much clearance you have? Wondering if I could fit the 285/50s which are 33.27.

How's noise and MPG's with those? I'm a daily driver but those look just aggressive enough to be cool AND useful.

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.

 

22's with "I'm going off road" tires. Love it.

The 285/50/22 would fit easy, especially with a level. But unless you need a E rated tire, I'd probably just go with the 305/45/22. The 305 is less than .5" shorter and a little wider. Probably not noticeable to the naked eye, but is only LT rated so it would be lighter and ride better. If I go with 22s, thats the decision I'd make. The 305 is also quite a bit cheaper than the 285/50/22. Not sure if the extra .5" is worth the price premium.

 

The 285/55/22 would maybe fit on stock wheels with a 2.5" level, maybe need a little trimming or a small BL. It's about the same size as a 275/65/20 and lots of people fit those with just a level.

 

The 325/50/22 would be rubbing all over the place on stock wheels because of the width. Height might clear with a level and BL.

Thanks, those are perfect. If you get tired of them, I'm in NJ too. I've got a nice set of 305/55/20 Nitto Trail Grapplers and Procomp rims to trade!!!

They are XD series rockstar 2 rims. Look like 20 x about 10 with a heavy offset . Tires are a mud tire and probably 35's x 12.5 as they don't bulge much past the edge of the rims. I could be wrong but that is what it looks like to me. Looks like a six inch lift too.

Not sure if this dude is a member on here , but saw his setup and it was awesome.

 

Can you guys guess what size he's running?

 

I'm guessing 285/70-17 ? not sure if there's even a level kit

Can anyone spot this wheel set up? Rim & Tire. It's exactly what I'm looking for. Looks to be sitting on a 6" or 8" lift.

 

 

 

 

My guess is a 6-7" lift. I think the tire & wheel setup is 35x12.50x22 Nitto Trail Grapplers on 22x12 KMC Rockstar rims, probably with a -44mm offset.

Good looking truck and nice wheels. The 305/45/22 is 32.8 in diameter and the 285/45/22 is 32.2. That's about 9/16" total O.D. and only about 1/4" on sidewall height. I don't see how 1/4" would be too short for your liking or even noticeable by just looking at the tire. The 305 is a bit wider with a 12" tread width compared to 9.5" tread width on the 285. I think the 305 is a little too wide for factory 9" wheels on a stock suspension and is why they rub. The 305 is designed for a 10" rim and will give the "balloon" look on a 9" rim. I'd stick with the 285. I have similar wheels (CK159) instead of your CK158. I'm running Cooper Discoverer SRX 285/45/22. They fit the 9" wheels perfect, were road force balanced and ride great.

I keep going between the 285s and 305s also. Trying to decide given the price, I like the Nittos more (tread, etc) but they are also a lot pricier.

    • Hello All!   My 2019 Colorado 3.6 LT, 4WD Crew Cab has approximately 77,500 miles and I recently began experiencing the well-known transmission shudder between about 30 and 65 mph. The problem had worsened to the point that I could no longer attribute it to road conditions - and I had decided to bring the truck to the dealer - when recently, I experienced a sudden loss of power while driving at maybe 40 MPH. Several warning lights flashed, the “Check Stabilitrack” message appeared, and the Check Engine, Stabilitrack, and Traction Control icons remained illuminated. The truck regained driving power, but it stayed in a low gear with unusually high RPMs for the speed. (limp mode?) Because I was only about two miles from home, driving slowly, I was able to make it back and run an OBD-II scan, which showed fault codes U0101, P0700, and U0100. My next trip in the truck was to drive it to the dealer the following day. That trip began normally, but after about a mile I experienced another loss of power, along with the same warning lights and the same “Check Stabilitrack” message. As before the truck remained driveable, but again operated at an abnormally high RPM-to-speed ratio and seemed stuck in a single gear. About a mile later, the dashboard lit up once more, this time displaying “Check 4WD.” Soon after that, I arrived at the dealer. I have verified that the truck still has its original factory transmission fluid, which means it has never received the corrective fluid exchange outlined in GM Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355.  That was Thursday of last week and I've heard nothing yet from the dealer.    According to Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355 and the build date of my truck, my truck should have the newer LV fluid. I've done a little research and read something about a problem with the wiring harness as well.   Anyone have an insights into this situation?  Thank you!!

    • Did you even read this article?   Even the title of the article says "U.S.-Iran Deal Doesn’t Mean a Swift Return of Oil and Gas Flows"   Remember, crude oil prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the oil companies.  Gas prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the station.  This article stated that many of the oil producing nations have to restart their processes to get the oil produced.  Then the oil has to be shipped to wherever.  And it doesn't get there overnight.  And most of that oil is not coming here. Check out this site:  https://afdc.energy.gov/data/10621   A graph will pop up to show where the US imports their oil from.  Notice that there isn't a lot of import from OPEC and Iraq.  Most of the US import comes from Canada. The US oil produces are selling their oil on the open market, which is why the US fuel costs went up.  So you're correct, the US oil companies are going to slow walk the price downward.
