Bummer. I'm looking to upgrade to 18's. I really like the SEY's that you're after but they don't make them in 8-lug, or 18" for that matter. I'd give up a nut to have them on my truck.

Check out the pics in my album. 305/45/22 on OEM 22s. I wouldn't worry too much about the 9" wheel width. Also, not sure of the look you're going for but 305/40/22s don't have enough sidewall for these tucks. IMHO

Looking to upgrade my 18" OEM's with 22" SEY's. I'm really focused on how the tire will look when its mounted. There's a certain look I like, and a certain look I don't like. I don't like how the factory tire looks. I've seen someone post some pages ago that had the Cooper Zeon LTZ's. That is the tire I'm looking for. I believe they were listed in the pic as being a 305/40/22. I think I'm going to stick with a 285/45, however when I look at Cooper's website I don't see that they make the Zeon LTZ's in a 22. I'm hoping that someone will say "you didn't look at the right spot, they make them and here they are", hence the reason for my post.

 

Anyone have any insight maybe or if not, maybe a mfg. that has a very similar style to the Zeon LTZ. Thanks!

 

EDIT: So some internet searching and I found them available in the 305/40/22. Issue I would see is they recommend a 10" rim width and the OEM's only come in a 9" that I've been able to find.

305/45-22 will work the best if you have a leveled truck. That size is 32.8" tall and 12" wide. It fits great on the OE or OE Replica wheels!

 

Also.....Toyo makes a 33x12.50r22 in the Toyo M/T which is a great fit for leveled and OE offset wheels

Thought I'd share my latest tire/wheel setup

 

2" Leveling kit

1.5" Zone Body Lift

20x10 Fuel 2pc Renegade -19mm offset

33x12.50r20 Toyo M/T

It cleared on flat ground, but was very close, so we did some minor trimming behind the front tire. No trimming to the front bumper. It may have never rubbed, but I'd rather be safe than sorry!

This is my 2015 Silverado ccsb I just put some Gear 20x10 -19 with Nitro Terra Grapplers LT305 55 20. Truck has a 2 in RC level.

What size are those tires? I don't want a level or lift. Looking at 275/70-18 or 285/65. Looks good.

Looks similar to my setup.

 

285/70/17 on Method NV 17x8.5 0 offset.

RC 2.5 level and 1.5 body lift. Any suggestions on tires/sizes? Gonna keep the stock rims. Thanks

 

You didn't mention rim size, but 285/65r18s will look good, but they fit on just a level. You can stuff a 295/70r18 under there, but might rub at full lock on the swaybar. Just about anything 33x12 will work.

 

Look up the Level + Body Lift thread for more ideas.

Is yours leveled or OEM?

    • When I was there, most to all did not have an hour meter. They just did 5000 miles on regular vehicles and 3000 on police stuff. The modern oil change monitors should take into account engine hours, weather, etc. I don`t use the monitor on my stuff. I pull the stick, look at it, smell it, rub it between my fingers, etc. That`s my oci.   I have had many engines. Some bracket race. No problems doing things my way. I was in the mechanic business for 30 yrs or so. I still do things the old school way. Don`t care who laughs at me.   Understand, I was in the main shop. We didn`t do oil changes or tires. We had a service station for that. I don`t remember the hours they used for tractors, lawn mowers, etc. Something in my head says 250 hours.
    • I don't know how far back vehicles had hour meters, be it driver accessible or diag accessible but was wondering if there was any rule of thumb your shop came up with in regards to an hour limit on engine oil regardless of the miles on the oil.    I know with construction or farm equipment its almost always based on engine hours for maintenance scheduling as no other metric really applies other than a seasonal time limit that one self imposes on items like engine oil.  
    • I'm not sure what to say on that mess but I will say that is an odd thing for that mechanic to speculate on as per assuming its been run out of oil a few times as the odds of that engine having instead piled up with a complete seizure would be very high if such events had actually taken place. However there is nothing saying that the oil has ever been changed although once again, what filter was on that engine as that would tell part of the story if its possible to figure out if its a factory installed filter or not. Too many items unknown and a lot of speculation, but regardless of that its one fubared mess that is mind boggling to see for a vehicle that new and its hard to imagine how it ever made it that far in life looking at the top of the engine.    His scanners, I've watched him before here and there and I'd have to say if I recall correctly that some of his scanning equipment is one or two steps up from a child's Exo Sketch 😋
    • I agree. That`s a LOT of sludge for 12,000 miles. I tossed that out here since this is an OCI thread. There`s tons of people here that do not post.   I used to work on a city fleet. That includes police cars and fire trucks. Lesson is, not to only use the odo for oci. A police car has a ton of hours on the engine for the miles it shows. And, not just idling, directing traffic. They beat on these things.   Course, since it is a Kia, they were gonna use the "100,000 mile warranty" for their OCI.😉
    • CLASS ACTION SUITS?  Does anyone know if there is already a class action suit for the paint - which was to have been fixed, changed in after the 2020 GM vehicles?  Does it look like this?    Just started 3 weeks ago - No help from GM as of yet - Dealer will not assist in speaking with GM on my behalf. Confirmed it is the paint they use along with the way the put it on that causes it to fail.  Clearly a Manufacturer's Defect.
