Define "not too bad." More pics! Is that iridium metallic?

Not my picture but it rubs right here... it's right before full lock, the edge of the tread brushes against the felt. There is also a small bolt there holding the factory plastic moldings it rubs one while passing by it. In this picture the person did a little trimming there

I'm almost thinking if I would have went with a 3 inch level they might clear.

I love how that looks. Its different for me to not be lifting this new truck and going with 35s and x12s, so staying leveled is making wheel and tire decisions SUPER difficult for me.

Sounds like you two need to trim that area.

285 70 r17 BFG KO2s on Mickey Thompson 17x9 Classic Black (-12 offset). Rough Country 2" leveling kit. No rubbing anywhere. Ride is excellent and nearly as quiet as OEM tires/wheels. Very happy with this setup.

 

looks great nice to see decent wheels on a newer truck...

Thanks!

 

I've owned GM trucks for years, first time doing custom wheels. I got motivated to do it when the factory 20s got scratched up when I got stuck doing normal truck stuff. I'm much happier with the 17 inchers. It's just my experience, and people use their trucks differently, but for me the fact that the factory SLT 20" wheels are flush with the tire sidewalls makes it too easy to damage them.

 

Each to his/her own!

 

This forum was my main source of information on wheels/tires/offsets/rubbing/leveling kits when figuring out what I wanted. Worked out great for me. Appreciate everyone's information and willingness to help. Good stuff!

New 295/60 r20 ridge grapplers on gear alloys. Put 49k on the previous Cooper ATP's with zero issues. Hope to have the same luck with these.

0 offset on the wheels sticks out about an inch with minimal trimming needed

Appreciate that BearClaw! It took me FORever to choose what I wanted, in fact at one point I almost went with the same OEM wheels you have lol because I love your set-up so much. BUT I also wanted something I hadn't seen before and this is where I ended up.

Curious on what height level you have? I looked up that size tire and they say those are just shy of a 34 inch tire. Any rubbing? Where did you need to trim? Oh and even though you have only had those tires a little while what are your thoughts between those and the atp's?

      2026 DENALI 6.2L

      By pyoung62 · Posted

      I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.

      Can you add a 360° Cameras hard button to a 2021 Sierra?

      By ShowMeShooter1332 · Posted

      I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments

      Oil Consumption

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
