2" RC front level

XD Grenade 820 wheels 20x9 +0 offset

Falken wildpeak at3 tires 305/55/20

-just barely touches that bottom fender corner trim piece. Only makes a rubbing noise off that piece in reverse at full lock and it's very small

Love this. I'm looking to do a 20x9 +1 with the same tires. I may get bashed for this, but how did this affect your gas mileage? I drive a fair distance to work each day so this really is a factor for me.

probably get around 16 mpg after the switch.

More aggressive tread will lower your mileage. I could stretch my stock bridgestones to 19-20 on the highway now I see 17-18

On the highway? That's disappointing.

I usually get 22ish(60mph) mpg on my stock bridgestones headed to work. This fall our company is moving, so ill be going about 70 then and now at 70 i'll usually sit around 19-20, so losing 1-2 isn't too bad.

 

What tires did you move to? These falken's are almost 2" wider than my 265/70/17 i currently run.

My speeds with the 285/45r22 bridgestones were 75-80mph getting 19-20mpg

 

My 285/70r70 nitto ridge grapplers at 70mph are 17-18mpg. I haven't adjusted my speedo so my range computer is off. If you calculate the small tire diameter difference it puts me at 73mph and 17.3-18.3mpg.

Does anyone have any pics of the 22" sey wheels with Nitto Grapplers? I searched but wasn't able to find any photos.

 

Also is 245/45/22 the biggest you can go at stock height?

I have 285/65/18 nitto ridge grapplers and a two inch level. I'm getting around 16.5-17mpg's but that's daily driving so it's really not bad

At what speed? The Falken Wildpeak AT3/W are not quite as aggressive as the ridge grapplers so i'd think that'd help me.

I believe wild peaks are heavier. It's city driving so between 0-65 mph in Atlanta traffic

Yeah they are heavier. Looks to be about 13 lbs heavier and 1/2" wider or so. Most of my driving is more highway. I'd think to get around 18-19 or so doing 65-70 right?

Sounds acceptable to me. I'm between 22-23 mpg on my way to work now cruised at 60 for about 33 miles. This fall i'll be going down to about 24 miles cruising at 70. Shouldn't see any real increase in overall fuel usage monthly. Works for me. Thanks for the help, very informative!

no problem. I'm just guessing from my experience though. I never get 22mpg in my truck even when it was stock lol. Traffic in Atlanta really sucks so that probably contributes to it

      Gas fill door

      By newdude · Posted

      Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
