Any rubbing?

 

It rubs a tiny bit at full lock if the ground is not flat and a tiny bit during very hard cornering when the body rolls.

I'll check it in a few weeks and do some trimming if needed.

Truck looks great, really dig those wheels!!

 

Thanx, they suit a lowered truck, lifted or level, maybe not so much.

Hey guys quick question I'm getting ready to put some 20x8.5's with 305/55/20's on my 2015 Silverado 1500 with the RC 2.5" leveling kit. I know it won't rub if I mount them like that but if I add 1.25" spacers will it rub? Any input appreciated!!

That will depend on your offset and back spacing but I have 20x10 -19 with the same tire size and I rubbed at full lock until I did a bit of trimming. Hope that helps.

I have read every page on this thread and teh level thread looking for wheels. Looking for something that looks good with a 16 crew cab. Deep ocean blue metallic. I like the fuel maverick and throttle but not sure on how thy would look with the blue. Will be a 20" wheel. Any ideas on what looks good with that color? Thanks

IMO for color Gun Metal looks amazing on the blue. As for design, that all depends whether you like a "busier" style or a simple one.

I have 305/55/20 now on 20x9 0 offset and had to trim. Rub is worse on driver side vs passenger for some reason.

I could be wrong but 305/55 might not fit on a 8.5" rim.

It does fit them, and it doesn't seem to rub as it is but I'm waiting on my lug nuts to get here so i can try them on. I got them at a great price so i didn't argue the width of them too much, but i wanted to try spacers for a little while

Haven't seen many in gun metal. As for tires I had the Terra grappler on my 14. They weren't very good in the snow and mud. I would like to get a taller tire that doesn't stick out. Still learning this offset and tire size. Any recommendations on size. Will be a 2.5 RC level kit.

Siguy,

Few questions. What kit did u do? I have a 3 inch level from motofab on stock 18 inch rims and tires. How is the feel in power loss going from a 31 inch tire to a 34? Do you mind measuring the height from the ground to the fender. Curious on the total height. Also what spacers did you use and where those factory rims factory black or plastidipped? Thanks

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
