I just got a 2018 Sierra 1500 4x4 (eassist). Eventually I want to get the BDS 4" lift with fox coil-overs and run a stockier tire. Stock rims are 20s and I was wondering if I would be able to run 18s. Will the brakes fit inside 18" rims or are there other mods I will have to make to run 18s?

 

I've got my eye on the Method NV rims, what offset would you guys recommend with a 4" lift?

 

Thanks!

i'm running 17" Method NVs with 0 offset and i dont have any issues. I'm only on the fox shocks though, so it just leveled the front end, not a full lift.

Moto Metal 970's 18x9 with 18+ offset BFG K02's in 285/65R18. No rubbing anywhere. Even at lock both directions. I just have a 2" level on the front. I know they are not real big tires but I am really happy with how it improved the looks of the truck. Front tires are just even with the fender lip now, rears are tucked in a tiny bit.

The brakes should clear down to 17", but with any knuckle lift the smaller the rim, the more limited you get in offsets that will clear the new knuckle.

Hey, first post just got my 2018 S1500 4x4 LTZ71 and have been scouring this thread/forum for very helpful information.  What is the consensus on 285-55 R20??  Prob a 2.5 inch leveling kit...  Would I have any rubbing?  Thanks!!

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I imagine the cold winters up here with repeated short runs in town every day for those that live and work in town and given what I have come to learn on this forum with DI engines having fuel dilution issues, and if they don't change the oil until it says to but keep driving it for a while, I bet all that is just lovely on those finicky lifters.

      AWD conversion to Z71

      By teamjnz · Posted

      I just did some reading and Stabilitrak is more than a what I had originally thought. It is more of a vehicle control system to help the driver in precarious situations. I thought it was only the AWD system. Now I know. So I changed the title for this thread to AWD conversion to Z71

      Sounds like converting will be a bigger endeavor than I was thinking. This truck doesn't have 2Hi like the Suburban did. The Tahoe has 4Hi and 4Lo and a button to turn of traction control.   From what I understand the Stabilitrak uses open diff in the front and rear. When wheel speed is not the same the stabilitrak uses the ABS system to slowdown the spinning wheel(s) to transfer power to the slower non-spinning wheel(s). I thought the transfer case was open too. Being able to transfer power either more to front or rear depending on wheel spin. Maybe I miss understood some information with you saying and power transfer is 50-50. Thanks

      My brother has a 2007 Avalanche with afm 5.3. It`s got 176,000 miles. Runs like a clock. Never been apart. Co worker has a 2010 Tahoe with afm 5.3. 230,000 miles. Never been apart. Runs like a clock. So, even though cyl deac is a weak spot, they can go the distance.   BUT, these engines had the oil changed regularly, AND had 5w30 as spec. I wonder if they would have lasted this far on 0w20? I`ll bet not.

      I certainly could be wrong but I hear of pickups far newer than that 2007 cutoff which may not be going to the wrecker but are having engine work done and be that a reman engine or new engine or trying to repair the existing engine. Some of it would be design issues as per the cylinder deactivation system that GM has and one of those lifters wiping out the cam and the question of oil changes moving the needle or not on that whole mess, or in the case of Ford pickup engines that have the long timing chains and wearing them out and the roller followers and phasers and some of that certainly goes back to oil change intervals. But in those various cases the truck has all sorts of life left in it and so the unfortunate owner and may be original owner or used market owner that is pouring money into repairs so the truck is not seeing the salvage yard yet but damage is happening by infrequent oil changes. A friends son had bought a 2018 I think it is half ton GM and it had some sort of extended or used dealer warranty on it and of course the lifter issue bites and its rattling and so the dealer had to swallow the bill and was at least 7000.00 and I think they only replaced what they felt they had to replace so yeah, I can see that being a ticking time bomb in the not too distant future. Would frequent oil changes cure all these engineering "marvels", probably not but some engine designs have shown that they do much better if the oil is changed a lot more often then if the manufacturer service claims are followed. New trucks cost so much that there is an incentive to keep the existing truck on the road by repairing.
