Hey guys, someone has probably asked at some point but I can't find a good answer. I picked up my new 2016 Silverado z71, I have an RC 2" leveling kit on order for it. I have been looking at some new wheels, found a few sets I like but most are 0 offset. My question is will a 0 offset fit with out poking out from the fenders, trying to stay close to, or flush with the edges of the fenders while running a 275 60 20 duratrac. Looking at 20x9 wheels.

I have 20x9 with 0 offset, with 275/65/20 KO2s. It sits close to flush maybe 1/4 out of fender. I had to trim some fender carpet cause it rubbed but it looks good. I'll probably go wider on my next set of tires though

275/65/20 K02s installed today. I ziptied the liners back before i dropped it off. I have tons of room. I was debating between these and 285 65 20s. I wish i would of gone bigger, these appear alot narrower than my 275 michelins. Oh well im still really happy with then and hopefully ill retain some MPGs. Lift is 2in spacer up front. 1in rear blocks. IMG_20160302_214901_zpsqqrnq6n1.jpgIMG_20160302_214606_zpsxispoyxs.jpg

No those are just cheapo yellow bulbs from ebay. I bought the nice expensive diodedynamics yellow LED bulbs and they physically dont fit(theyre huge)... so i have these in until i figure out a permanent solution. Love the yellow. It contrasts well with the white/blue hids. Thanks!

Oh nice. Yea I love the yellow fog light look too. I was thinking of doing yellow lamin x on my fogs with the all led front end on my iridium all terrain.

Looks good without the valence. Think I'm going to pull mine off soon

If you do let me know what happens to you gas mileage. I took mine off the day I got my new wheels and tires and saw a dramatic decrease in gas mileage. Not sure if it's due to the new wheels and larger tires or just the removal of the valence or both. In my case I have put it back on to see if there is any improvement

Possible, but I took mine off, and mpg stayed the same around town but lost 2mpg on the highway.

    • 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. 
    • That dog don't hunt. 😏   First, a 2025 with 12K on the clock AND idled for a year nonstop is false on it's face; this is 2026. You can do one or the other but not both.    Second, ENGINE HOURS are absolutely available. The rest is third grade math. Micky Mouse scanner he got out of a box of Cracker Jacks OR an ID10T error.    Third, if they ran it out of oil "Several times" that motor is boned on the first hit.    Does this guy think piling higher makes it stink less? 
    • That's interesting, I assume that would add to the cost of the oil but also I was forgetting to bring up the issue of the low tension rings allowing more oil past which in turn forces the cats to have more oil additives pass through them that wouldn't otherwise so they are creating that problem and of course its all in the name of fuel economy. Mind you the other issue would be the lack of additives that fight the formation of carbon within the piston ring grooves which turn the engine into an oil burner and with in this GM forums case is your average off the shelf Dexos licensed oil, meanwhile the other off the shelf oil being Valvoline's R&P isn't licensed and the only one that is which is that certain Mobil oil that came out recently ( its not even being marketed in Canada ) and only a fraction of vehicle owners are going to be using it out of all the other oils on the shelf or the quickie lube bay that meet the Dexos spec by way of actual licensing.    Also I suspect that its an easy excuse to pool the non turbo DI engines in with the turbo DI engines and design the oil to not have LSPI issues in the most demanding engines and short change the naturally aspirated DI by not offering a higher concentration of additive package they could handle and still not be at risk of LSPI.    I wonder if Amsoil flipped the switch just lately and did whatever packaging designation at the same time as I wonder what oil formulation I would have bought in May, of course I don't know when it was packaged at the factory vs how long it was in storage at the Edmonton warehouse. I know its been said at least in the past that the big players switch over to a reformulated oil but the packaging has not changed until they make that move as well so there is that cross over time where its a new formulation in a predated formula marked package. 
    • Hmm. A real reason to not just use the odometer to determine OCI?
