Bummer. I'm looking to upgrade to 18's. I really like the SEY's that you're after but they don't make them in 8-lug, or 18" for that matter. I'd give up a nut to have them on my truck.

Check out the pics in my album. 305/45/22 on OEM 22s. I wouldn't worry too much about the 9" wheel width. Also, not sure of the look you're going for but 305/40/22s don't have enough sidewall for these tucks. IMHO

Looking to upgrade my 18" OEM's with 22" SEY's. I'm really focused on how the tire will look when its mounted. There's a certain look I like, and a certain look I don't like. I don't like how the factory tire looks. I've seen someone post some pages ago that had the Cooper Zeon LTZ's. That is the tire I'm looking for. I believe they were listed in the pic as being a 305/40/22. I think I'm going to stick with a 285/45, however when I look at Cooper's website I don't see that they make the Zeon LTZ's in a 22. I'm hoping that someone will say "you didn't look at the right spot, they make them and here they are", hence the reason for my post.

 

Anyone have any insight maybe or if not, maybe a mfg. that has a very similar style to the Zeon LTZ. Thanks!

 

EDIT: So some internet searching and I found them available in the 305/40/22. Issue I would see is they recommend a 10" rim width and the OEM's only come in a 9" that I've been able to find.

305/45-22 will work the best if you have a leveled truck. That size is 32.8" tall and 12" wide. It fits great on the OE or OE Replica wheels!

 

Also.....Toyo makes a 33x12.50r22 in the Toyo M/T which is a great fit for leveled and OE offset wheels

Thought I'd share my latest tire/wheel setup

 

2" Leveling kit

1.5" Zone Body Lift

20x10 Fuel 2pc Renegade -19mm offset

33x12.50r20 Toyo M/T

It cleared on flat ground, but was very close, so we did some minor trimming behind the front tire. No trimming to the front bumper. It may have never rubbed, but I'd rather be safe than sorry!

This is my 2015 Silverado ccsb I just put some Gear 20x10 -19 with Nitro Terra Grapplers LT305 55 20. Truck has a 2 in RC level.

What size are those tires? I don't want a level or lift. Looking at 275/70-18 or 285/65. Looks good.

Looks similar to my setup.

 

285/70/17 on Method NV 17x8.5 0 offset.

RC 2.5 level and 1.5 body lift. Any suggestions on tires/sizes? Gonna keep the stock rims. Thanks

 

You didn't mention rim size, but 285/65r18s will look good, but they fit on just a level. You can stuff a 295/70r18 under there, but might rub at full lock on the swaybar. Just about anything 33x12 will work.

 

Look up the Level + Body Lift thread for more ideas.

Is yours leveled or OEM?

    • are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.
    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death. 
    • In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them. 
    • I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.
