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

      With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them.
