Post your 2014+ wheel/tire set-up

[WhineyTTwins]

 

Looks really good! Those are standards right? Thinking about those polished for mine in 17 with 33's. Whats the lift and wheel/tire specs? What did you do to fit them?

 

Yep, Method Standards 17X8.5 with 35x12.50 Toyo AT2 Xtreme (They accidentally ordered these and I didn't notice until it was too late so didn't even both to go back, just stuck with them). I wanted the regular AT2. These are kind of loud for my taste, but I have never had a big tire setup like this so I wasn't expecting it to be dead silent either.

As for lift, I went cheap because i'm 2wd. Running Maxtrac 4.5 lift spindles on top of the RC 2.5 level/lift I had in there and a 4" lift block in the back which will be changed out for a 5" lift block. Blistein 5100's are in the near future but I ordered a Diablo i2 last night for under $300 so I jumped on it quick. Hoping to get some MPG back.

 

4 wheel parts currently has the Blistein 5100 set at $300 flat so hopefully buy them friday.

 

As for fitment, just had to cut a slight angle on that front plastic under the bumper which is getting removed anyways . Otherwise,fit like a charm.

 

I did find a bunch of issues while doing the lift though, like a bad tie rod, both rear shocks blown, warped rotors (measured with micrometer). Going aftermarket on rotors and shocks because OEM is garbage.

Do you have a link the 4 wheelparts I went to didn't even offer Bilstein?

Just picked the truck up from alignment and the thrust angle is WAY off. Anyone that may have some insight, please check out my thread started in the troubleshooting subforum. Has printouts as well.

Your truck looks great. However, don't be too upset with your tire shop.....35" AT2's are only available in the XT version.

Oh, didn't know this! Good to know, thanks Big Whiskey. I'm already use to the tire noise. Getting them road forced balanced today because the wheels already kicked off a few weights AND there are weights stacked on top of each other. Really poor job.

Nope. No rubbing at all. Just have to get use to the little bit of extra road noise.

Yeah, aftermarket rims are great for chucking wheel weights, haha. And, you're probably limited to clip on weights on the inside lip, and stick on weights as close to the outside as they can get. If it's the stick-on weights you're chucking, try putting black duck tape or gorilla tape over them. I've had good luck with that over the years.

bfg k02 275/65r20 2.5" rc level

hey, how have you liked these? Do you have any rubbing? This is one of the larger diameter tires I've seen on a non-lifted 1500 series truck.

 

I have a 2" level kit on my Silverado and have a liking to those size of tire.

Bilstein 5100s on front and back (front adjusted for max height at ~2"), Readylift 3.5" block replaced factory block for added 1" in rear, Nitto TerraGrappler 275/70R18s on Mayhem Warrior 18x9 +18 offset wheels. No rubbing.

Went with XD Series Crank wheels, 18x9 0-offset........BFG KO2 275-70

Debating on 2" leveling kit or bilstein shocks to get closer to level......what does everyone prefer?

I like the $50 2" level kit. But that's just me
