I'm curious on something from you guys. I have the stock tires and rims. My plan is down the road some rims and tires and at first was thinking 20s but for some reason I'm kinda leaning to a 18 inch rim. I know one pro is less weight. . and maybe a smoother ride....?/ as for jumping to 33s vs the stock 31s. Do you guys notice the difference in power loss due to a taller tire. I don't plan on tuning , maybe a intake tube and new muffler so curious if anyone was like " wow I can definitely feel the lack of get up and go."..?

I can tell you that I went to the Ko2s (275/60R20) and they feel a lot heavier.. because they are 15lbs per tire. It affects ride quality some and MPG, but I knew that going in. You can definitely feel a difference, but i am happy with the look. Its definitely a trade-off. Hope this helps.

I'd say a kiss from the tire at full lock...not really a rub.

Hey Guys, I have seen two or three guys on here running 295/60/20s with a level, so I have done my homework. That being said, I can't seem to get ahold of them.. If anyone is running 295/60/20 I would love to see them! Also anywhere from +1-+30 offset is what I am looking at, and want to know if there are rubbing issues. Plastic I can deal with... Streering components I don't want do deal with. Thanks.

I can actually have a worth post in here now that I have some new tires! Been waiting for this day for a while now. Super pleased with the outcome.

 

20x10 Fuel Maverick -12 offset with 295/55/20 Toyo AT2. Have slight rub on inner liner at full lock, but should be able to take care of it with some zip ties.

They call for 80psi but I run 70. Some guys run 60.

While this is fresh on my mind, you guys with 10ply tires, what PSI are you running?

 

I would start with 45 and go down or up accordingly. The gentlemen above who mentioned 70 or 60 has a 2500 so 45 is a good start for a 1500.

Thanks guys. I'll play around with it.

Thank you sir. Rims are 20x10 with -12 offset. I'm going to have to do the zip tie-fender mod to keep the tires from rubbing the wheel liner at full lock.

    • Are you going to take long trips in it?  If so, try out the seats in the various trims. For me the lower trim level seats were not comfortable. 
    • I have a 2016 that I bought new and still own. I'm around 129,000 miles now. The biggest problem was a transmission failure about 2 years ago around 95000 miles. No warning, just failed while driving down a back road. A reman GM transmission installed and it's been fine ever since. A few other minor problems along the way. I am in no hurry to replace it. It's been paid off long ago and do plan on driving this as long as I can.   I will admit I am leery about all the additional electronics in the newer models and feel that it is just more potential problems. I think there's actually more than I would have wanted in this 2016 but so far so good. I think even if something major like lifter failure happened, it would still be cheaper to at worst, drop a new engine in than buy a new vehicle. 
    • I’ve own several successful businesses. I’ve bought homes and lived in different states. I’d witness several generations buy homes and survive in different economic circumstances. You get awful sippy when people have different experiences than you do. You live a life. I’ve lived a life. It seems our experience has been different. You can point out generalized statistics. Some people learn how to thrive when the odds are against them. Living in different states does make a difference in a persons quality of life and economic outcomes and opportunities. That’s a fact Jack. It’s my truth, my life. Hard work and long hours the right environment made my families life easier. And yes moving to a different state increased the odds of that happening. Stats are generalized. People who thrive don’t make excuses. They beat the odds. Others get mad and point to those statistics. I guess that’s you. My post pointed out how you helped people beat the odds. Somehow your panties got in a wad. Go figure. 
    • Good question, I don't remember for sure but I believe it was the HD. I will check and get back to you.
    • Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE.
