That is one of the sizes I am strongly considering in Toyo AT II's. In the leveling kit thread, http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/153363-2014-leveling-kits/page-39, those that have 275/70/18's with a 2.5" level, said there is a lot more room for a wider tire. I am also planning a 1.5" body lift as well when the time comes. But it sounds like it would work. Also, I am planning on running the stock Z71 wheels. The offset will be they key factor.

There's a member on here running 305/60r18 Toyos on stock wheels WITHOUT a leveling kit on his Sierra. 295s should be no problem.

Is there anyone running a 295 70 r18 on the stock z71 wheels? I want to do this set up with a RC2.5" level but im afraid it will rub too much. Any opinions?

 

That is the exact same setup that I want to run as well. I already have the RC 2.5" level kit (not installed yet) but am curious about the tires as well on stock Z71 rims. I had that setup on my 2013 F150 (2.5" level, and didn't have any issues at all), I am hoping for the same result on this 2014 Chevy.

I just put on my 275/70/18 with my RC 2.5" Lift this morning and wish I went with at least a 295.. you will have plenty of room.

Thanks, good to know.

Also, the 295/70/18's are just over an inch taller 34.3 vs 33.2 and 11.61 vs 10.83 width. So, is there room both directions?

I'll double check tomorrow and let you know but i'm sure you will have no problem

As suggested in another thread, I figured I'd try to get this going. It'd be really cool if all the 2014+ forum members would post your wheel/tire set-up in a central location.

 

Post some pics, and include details on sizes, offset, backspace, lifts, levels etc.

 

Also tell us about any rubbing and/or trimming required to run your set-up.

 

Thanks

 

Just throwing it out there but when this post started, did anyone else find it more helpful and useful. When the posted topics were exactly what Blue set them out to be when you started the section? The posts were simple, photos, with all the required info needed if anyone else wanted to put them on their truck. Now, we've got reposts with the original photos shown again and you have to scroll through pages of info just to get to the useful stuff. I thought when it started that it was going to be posts of the setups and if there were any questions about it - PM that person. Maybe I'm out to lunch on what this was suppose to be but I just found it a lot more useful when it started.

Nice! I just removed my 26" wheels and went back to the factory 20's. Thinking about plasti dipping them black also. Any advice or tips?

Nice! Are those Boss 330's or U2's? (both look similar)

    • 287,500 Mile Service   8/13/2026   Reset Fuel Trims   Since the work done in the previous post there was a good improvement in response in all areas except right after a fill up where the LTFT would go -20%+ for about four miles while the STFT was near neutral. Before the work they both went very negative for a few miles after a fill up but act normal thereafter.    We did a systems check of the vapor recovery system for functionality and ability to hold a vacuum. That checked out fine. But this doesn't mean the charcoal canister is dead in the water. Testing that is next up. For now the reset of the fuel trims.    I intentionally shorted the fill exactly two gallons to eliminate any chance of filling the canister. On start up the trims were behaving normally until I got up and rolling where the LTFT went -10 / -11%% but the short was + 2 to 0%. Within a mile the the STFT offset the LTFT and by 2 miles they were neutral. HUGE improvement but still not hunky-dory.    I'll watch them for a few days. Perhaps another tank where I will fill completely to 'first click' and compare. Meanwhile on the hunt for a new canister and I'll toss another purge value at it for good measure. Pending the outcome of the canister test that is. Progress of any kind is welcome.    Fuel economy improvement with bringing hole #3 back to the living was a noticeable bump to the positive. Even on the few miles I drove after the refill I already see another bump up by the trims reset.     She's purring like a kitten with a warm bowl of milk.     
    • Yeah, shame I can’t really get that filter easily anymore. Running a PureOne. Your fave!    TAN would be neat to see. Confirmation I ran it too long probably. 🤣
    • My son and I both bought new trucks in 2017. Both of us immediately put Truck Covers USA American Roll Covers on our trucks. My son still has his truck and it never sees the inside of a garage. We live in Alabama, so not much snow. My truck was my daily driver and was in the garage when I wasn't driving it or at work. No issues with either cover even after almost 9 years. About a year ago I sold my truck to my brother and bought a 2025 Silverado 2500. The second thing that I put on that truck was a new Truck Covers USA cover. They are very well made and have a very positive locking system. I looked at a Retrax and my concern was the way that the cover locked to the rail. BTW, the first thing I put on the new truck was step bars. Those new trucks are high!
    • The Allison 10 speed torque converter doesn't "lock up" like the previous transmissions. It has 4 operational modes; open, slip, transition from open to slip; transition from slip to open. I have an Edge CTS3 monitor and I monitor transmission torque converter slip. Step on the gas and you get a little slip. Take your foot off the gas and you get a little negative slip. I have not found a way to display the torque converter mode beyond that. My Edge CTS3 also displays something that our trucks should already display, the current gear. I also monitor throttle body position and engine load. If I see the engine load getting too high, I'll manually drop a gear.
    • Nice result. Your filter is working well  I'd have like to have seen the acid number for this sample. Curious type that I am.
