Had the tires and wheels installed an hour ago. Looks amazing actually. Really happy with that.

 

Unfortunately the balancing has to be off, the truck was shaking like a son of a on the highway.

 

Also unfortunately, my desktop crashed this morning so I can't upload pics from my camera and edit them...Will post as soon as I fix it.

That's what the app is for - post those bad boys up! Looking forward to seeing them whenever you're able [emoji106]

haha, I'm a bit of a photographer so I tend to want nice edited shots.

 

We'll see how long I am down for first!

275/55/20 Michelin LTX A/T 2

OE Wheels 20x9 oem offset black CK156 replicas (in 20 instead of 22)

http://www.oewheelsllc.com/Wheels_3/Wheels-for-Chevy-Trucks/20-Fits-GMC-Sierra-Wheels-Matte-Black-20x9-SET

 

Going to swap to black McGard lugs when they arrive from Amazon. Also added a dual wall Gibson 4" black ceramic coated exhaust tip to set off the wheels. I love silver-the truck is dirty in these pics-drove through a rain storm with Cquartz on.

 

 

Sorry to quote myself, but I wanted to provide some feedback. I had a vibration so I took the truck to a better shop today with a Hunter road force balancer. They found one wheel is bent (note no shipping damage) and another they could not get a good road force balance on and it wasn't the Michelin's. I would advise staying away from cheap reporductions. OE Wheels is going to send me two replacement wheels in exchange, but I've had it and am going to sell them on craigslist when I get the replacements. I'll get more money that way versus having to pay for shipping. For anyone unfamiliar OE Wheels makes almost all the GM reproductions wheels on ebay. Sh!t happens, but the wheels left their factory this way.

 

On the bright side I installed a level kit in the front, got the truck aligned and truck looks much better! It just sucks waiting on wheels again.

 

I just ordered some genuine 20" GM CK106 wheels in black like LTZTom and should have them this week. I'm going with black center caps. :)

+12 offset. Had to zip tie the liner back in the drivers side and adjusted my Coilovers up about .25" to get rid of the rub at full lock. Also replaced the stick rear block with a 2" block.

Sorry to hear that! I have crazy vibration and I'm honestly starting to wonder if it's my all terrain rims. They vibrated with the SRA's I had them balanced again under warranty and the same vibration at highway speeds.

 

When I put on my winter rims and tires, truck rides smooth. Now I put on these ko2's (they said they had a hard time getting one to balance) and the truck shakes like crazy over 60mph.

 

I'm giving a proper wheel balancing shop a call tomorrow to get to the bottom of this. Hopefully it's not the rims and the dealer was just incompetent. I already powder coated them!!

I may have just been unlucky, but two wheels and the fact I want to put a definite end to this on my 3rd trip to a tire shop has me going OEM/GM. At first I only notice it at certain speeds and on rough pavement so I attributed it to my sway bar and I softened the bar up. In fact both bad wheels were in the rear and the bar on it's stiffer setting was transmitting more road forces and vibration to the cab. The first place just spun balanced them and should've caught it. CK106 wheels were my #2 choice so this isn't all that bad.

 

After this experience I will never go to a place without a Hunter road force machine. Their website has a locator by address/zip code of shops equipped. I picked one with the new "touchscreen" model so I knew the machine was probably not abused yet.

 

What you might do is put the new wheels on your front axle bare and spin them and measure runout with a dial indicator in two directions-this would find a dimensional issue (maybe not a heavy spot though). If my lazy butt had done that I would've been ok.

 

Ok I know I'm long winded, but back in the day I used to autocross/open track a 4th gen f-body. I used a couple sets of OE Wheels ZR1 reproductions with decent results. The only thing was they were very heavy versus OEM GM wheels on the order of 7 lbs difference on 17's. I'm going to weigh these GM wheels versus the OE wheels (I know different style) and post results. I may run them with a dial indicator and post runout comparisons too if anyone is curious. I have a feeling the GM wheels will be much lighter and more accurate.

Thanks for the feedback. I ordered a set of 0 offset wheels on Friday. They were supposed to be on backorder and not ship until 10/30 so I figured I had plenty of time to figure things out. Well they showed up yesterday so now I'm trying to figure out how much they might rub.

 

Are you running a leveling kit or the bilsteins? If so how much front lift do you have? I have the 2" front rc leveling kit which I'm sure I'm going to have to add the other half if I do t want it to rub. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By No1UKnow · Posted

      Hello All!   My 2019 Colorado 3.6 LT, 4WD Crew Cab has approximately 77,500 miles and I recently began experiencing the well-known transmission shudder between about 30 and 65 mph. The problem had worsened to the point that I could no longer attribute it to road conditions - and I had decided to bring the truck to the dealer - when recently, I experienced a sudden loss of power while driving at maybe 40 MPH. Several warning lights flashed, the “Check Stabilitrack” message appeared, and the Check Engine, Stabilitrack, and Traction Control icons remained illuminated. The truck regained driving power, but it stayed in a low gear with unusually high RPMs for the speed. (limp mode?) Because I was only about two miles from home, driving slowly, I was able to make it back and run an OBD-II scan, which showed fault codes U0101, P0700, and U0100. My next trip in the truck was to drive it to the dealer the following day. That trip began normally, but after about a mile I experienced another loss of power, along with the same warning lights and the same “Check Stabilitrack” message. As before the truck remained driveable, but again operated at an abnormally high RPM-to-speed ratio and seemed stuck in a single gear. About a mile later, the dashboard lit up once more, this time displaying “Check 4WD.” Soon after that, I arrived at the dealer. I have verified that the truck still has its original factory transmission fluid, which means it has never received the corrective fluid exchange outlined in GM Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355.  That was Thursday of last week and I've heard nothing yet from the dealer.    According to Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355 and the build date of my truck, my truck should have the newer LV fluid. I've done a little research and read something about a problem with the wiring harness as well.   Anyone have an insights into this situation?  Thank you!!

      Gas Prices

      By PhilB · Posted

      Did you even read this article?   Even the title of the article says "U.S.-Iran Deal Doesn’t Mean a Swift Return of Oil and Gas Flows"   Remember, crude oil prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the oil companies.  Gas prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the station.  This article stated that many of the oil producing nations have to restart their processes to get the oil produced.  Then the oil has to be shipped to wherever.  And it doesn't get there overnight.  And most of that oil is not coming here. Check out this site:  https://afdc.energy.gov/data/10621   A graph will pop up to show where the US imports their oil from.  Notice that there isn't a lot of import from OPEC and Iraq.  Most of the US import comes from Canada. The US oil produces are selling their oil on the open market, which is why the US fuel costs went up.  So you're correct, the US oil companies are going to slow walk the price downward.
