Going to look sweet with some MTs :D

 

Those seem to be the wheel of choice for the 2014+ trucks.

 

I cant seem to find any wheels that i like. I did see 1 set of billets from fuel that were kinda nice but even American Force doeant have wheels that i like. Until i see something i like im just going to run the stock...... I did like the escalade 22z with MTs

Thanks man! Yea I really like them. If I didn't get such a good deal on them I would've kept my stock wheels. They are pretty overplayed, but I'm not worried about everyone else. I think they look great.

Has anyone weighed these gynormous tire/wheel combos to see how much heavier they are than an oem combo? Most of them look like they'd play hell on the brakes, mpg and who knows what else.

Thanks Volsfan!

 

It's hard to say, for sure, since each truck will sit just a little differently, but I would think that if you had any rubbing, it would only be on the mud flap (if you have them). A lot of guys just dremel out a little piece of it to make it clear, or pull back the liner with a zip tie. Either way, you'd get a good amount of extra clearance.

 

I have run 2 different tire setups, both 33x12.50x20 (Toyo M/T and now A/T) with + 18 rims and neither have rubbed whatsoever. Here is a clearance shot with the M/Ts:

The +1 offset is going to be the difference maker, though, but lots of guys on here run them.

Awesome man, love that wheel. Now the worst part...the waiting game!

 

Post some pics up once you get them installed!

I got the wheels from member on here and he has some Toyo RT's and I was very impressed with them so leaning that way.

Those of you that have had the issue with the retaining clips on the hubs causing vibration, did you have to remove them on all four wheels or was it just on the rear?

 

Just had some new wheels mounted and balanced twice over the weekend because when I get on the highway it vibrates like crazy. Shop says tires are in spec and balanced correctly, so this is the only other thing I can think of. Really want to take care of this when I get home today.

They are only on the rear. 1 clip on 1 of the 6 lugs per side. Your can pry it off with a screwdriver.

So I just checked my wheels and there are no clips on the rear hubs on either side. Does anyone know if there are any on the front? I know your supposed to take them off the rear, but is there a chance there would be any on the front?

None on the front. Do you have Hub centric rings on the wheels?

I believe I do. There is a black resin/plastic type ring that fits around the hub and fits right into the wheel

Hmm, they're either balanced incorrectly or they weren't torqued down correctly. The pattern in my aftermarket wheel manual states to torque them down to 100 and then to 140 in the following patter (think clock). 12-6-2-8-4-10. Might give that a try. I had to mess with mine a little before they seated correctly but your balance or road force could be off.

      Replacing 2.7L on 2021 Silverado with 2023 2.7L

      I’m definitely interested to hear the end result here.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.
