Post your 2014+ wheel/tire set-up

Intimidator3 · October 26, 2015

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.

Toyo Open Country MT's 275/65/20's on stock 20" GMC All Terrain wheels

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.

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

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, 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!!!

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.

Dirtbiker · October 28, 2015

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

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.

Mine is at the shop now getting 2.5" RC level kit installed and a set of 275-65-20 BFG KO2's, I cant wait to get it back tomorrow....

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.

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.
