Hey Gents,

 

First post here; I've been lurking since February of 2015. Great info across the board, but this is my favorite thread. Not many regular cabs, so here you go...

 

20x9 -12 Rockstar II's on 305/50R20 Nitto Terra Grappler G2's.

 

Will be getting a BDS 2" level up front and 1" block in the rear next Wednesday.

 

Thanks for having me :)

Badges already have been blacked along with bowties

 

Snow plow? The lower chrome strip? Ya I don't want to plastidip it ... I wish I could get rid of that chrome piece and replace it with a black one somehow.

 

But these things are so minimal that it doesn't bother me much.

 

That's the reason I went with this new Z71 was the massive "Lack" of chrome ... I DoNot like chrome on my truck so this was a good start. But after blacking out the badges and center bowties I'm more then happy with how it's turned out.

 

I've addded a 1" Readylift blocks in the back to level the truck out. Ore along with addi a set of Amp Research Powerstrps. Next will be a full LTZ center console swap then a stereo system. Then when we get a new trailer a set of rear airbags.

 

I am SO happy with how this truck has turned out!

 

Thanks everyone for all the nice replies.

 

And as far as the red ... I love red ... And ya this picture turned out a tinge reder then it really is with a iPhone enhancement thing. It's still damn red, the color is called "Red Hot" so it's suppose to be really red but it is a touch different in person then the pic.

 

This is virtually identical to what I'll have in 7 more weeks. Any more pics since the blackouts? LOVE it!

So love these wheels just don't know if they'll work on my truck. They look better than my expectation was for the photoshop. Thoughts?

 

Big shoutout to VTBulldog for the great work on the photoshop.

Without reading through all 150 pages, does anybody know what is the biggest tire I can run on a 2.5 level with a -12 offset? I'm going to get some new tires this week and really leaning toward the Toyo AT2 or RT. I know I could run 33x12.5 RT, but not sure about 305/55 AT2. If 305 is too wide I'll go with 295/55. Any help on this would be appreciated!

I had the slightest rub in reverse @ full lock coming out of my driveway with 285/65r18 at II on 18x9 -12 fuels with just a 2.5" front, your 20x10 -12 are going to stick out an additional 1/2" compared to my 18x9's. One guy on here said he has a slight rub in reverse with 305 55 20 ATII and 4.75" lift he was running 20x10 -24 offset. The RT's are 32.8"x12.5" while the 305 55 20 is 33.25"x12.4" and the 295 55 20 is 32.8"x12.2" maybe take a clearance measurement at full lock and compare those numbers with your existing tire measurements. What size tires are on your truck right now?

Stock 20's are +27 I believe. There is truck similar to what you're looking for I believe its a 7" RC with 35x12.50 firestone mt on factory wheels with 1.5" wheels spacers the truck is maroon. I think he posted a while back in this thread.

Thanks for that. If the 305's don't work, I would like to think the 295 should without any rubbing. I called my shop today and put an order in for the 305. Good thing is once they get them mounted I can drive it around the shop and make sure I don't have any rubbing issues. If so I'll switch to 295. I currently have stock 275/55 goodyears.

I have 305's on 20x9 0 offset and I rub with the level, not bad, and some plastic trimming would fix it. Yo will prob rub pretty good, but hope it works out for ya!

Post #42 and post #162 of this thread can shed some light on the subject.

Hnnnnnng. Do you have any pics of your setup? I appreciate that. I'd rather go to a smaller tire than have to hack up the front end.

Thank you sir. I'll look into those.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Here's a starter kit:    CC Jensen, a Danish oil testing Concern gives us the following guidelines:   ISO 14/12/10 Very Clean Oil ISO 16/14/11 Clean Oil ISO 17/15/12 Lightly Contaminated ISO 19/17/14 New Oil ISO 22/20/17 Very Contaminated and not suitable for any service.   In addition CC Jensen gives a table showing how engine life is increased by cleaning up the oil. For example cleaning the oil from 19/17/14 to 13/11/8 will extend motor life by a factor of 6X.   But even cleaning it two “Life Extension Classes” will double motor life. So perhaps giving those classes would be useful:   21/19/16 20/18/15 19/17/14 18/16/13 17/15/12 16/14/11 15/13/10 14/12/9 13/11/8   *************************************   https://testoil.com/program-management/setting-iso-cleanliness-targets/   Third paragraph from the bottom will give a starting point.    Your next question should be, okay 10um at what Beta ratio and the answer is in the graph Beta 75.   Then the next question is what is your chosen filters profile? (Purolator PL series below) The red dot is Beta 75. This was the information I obtained from MANN a few years ago. So the best filters, Purolator One, AMSOIL EA, FRAM Ultra, Royal Purple, Bosch Premium should get a doubling engine life over filters like Purolator L, any service filter from any quick lube, WIX, NAPA, STP, Mobil 1, Purolator BOSS.    And as noted by CC Jensen a 2-5 micron @ Beta 200 bypass system has the capability of a six fold improvement. AMSOIL has such a system as does Donaldson.       Now having said all that testing is the touchstone. Test the oil NEW and test it with your chosen filter. Then test over milage. Do the work, get the result. But understand this in NOT absolute BECAUSE this is one factor in isolation.   Example:    A valve spring supplier can state that with cam X and a valve train of Y grams the valves will not float to 7K rpm. is that true if the builder choose a system 20 grams over limit? Common sense must be used and limits understood.

      It varies a ton around me. Some places are still at $5.00 or higher and others are way down into the $4's.   Offroad diesel was $4.02 at the one station I passed today.

      2027 Chevrolet Silverado: Official Discussion

      By Hdwrguy · Posted

      So after reading the reveal from Chevrolet, I kept asking myself...why did the trim levels change?   Here are the official ones:   Work Truck (WT): The quintessential fleet truck, built with durable, easy-to-clean interiors for commercial or utilitarian use. Custom: A stylish, road-oriented trim that adds a more refined appearance, standard dual exhaust, and modern exterior styling. Custom Trail Boss: An entry-level off-roader featuring a 2-inch factory suspension lift and 34-inch mud-terrain tires on a budget. Silverado: Serving as the new base consumer truck (replacing the previous LT trim), it comes standard with the Z71 off-road package when equipped with 4WD. Trail Boss: Steps up the off-road hardware with the 2-inch lift, 34-inch tires, monotube shocks, an exclusive off-road hood, and more premium interior options. ZR2: The flagship off-roader. It boasts 35-inch mud-terrain tires, Multimatic DSSV dampers, front and rear electronic lockers, forged carbon-fiber interior accents, and an available hardcore Bison Edition (co-developed with AEV). High Country: The pinnacle of luxury. It replaces bright chrome with modern satin chrome, 22-inch wheels, premium leather, real wood interior trim, a panoramic sunroof, and an exclusive front-passenger touchscreen. As others have stated, why would you want a Silverado - 'Silverado' - wth?? LT needs to remain!!!   Also, there will no longer be a dedicated Z71 model.  All 4x4 trucks will have the Z71 package. Carplay is also something that cannot be removed.  Hopefully it will remain.     I am excited about the 5.7L V8 (350 C.I.D.)  Old school Chevy power.  My only concern is whatever version of AFM/DFM cylinder deactivation.  Too bad that isn't an option a buyer can choose to have or not.   I will definitely be stopping by my local dealership when these trucks start showing up.
