Post your 2014+ wheel/tire set-up

15slvrado · July 23, 2016

Bilstein 5100s on front and back (front adjusted for max height at ~2"), Readylift 3.5" block replaced factory block for added 1" in rear, Nitto TerraGrappler 275/70R18s on Mayhem Warrior 18x9 +18 offset wheels. No rubbing.

Looks great. How do you like the G2's?

I am on the fence with the same size or 285/60 on stock Z71 wheels.

Went with XD Series Crank wheels, 18x9 0-offset........BFG KO2 275-70

Debating on 2" leveling kit or bilstein shocks to get closer to level......what does everyone prefer?

What's your goal? Most folks level, then put those 33's on. You got them to fit on stock suspension with 0 offset rims, so you have no CV angle issues or stress right now.

For me, your truck looks "overstuffed" with too big tires (but I like your rim choice). It needs some height either by a level, a suspension lift, or a body lift.

I agree, i want to raise the front end just not real familiar with doing that (first truck to install leveling kit/shocks) i guess i was just wondering if using leveling kit vs. shocks, if one causes less issues with the overall suspension than the other

I did the Rough Country 2" spacer. Worked great! My buddy did also, then switched to Bilsteins. World of difference. If I were to do it over...I'd go the Bilstein route. Much improved ride. JM2C

I like the $50 2" level kit. But that's just me

I like the Rancho quicklift RS9000 adjustables. Simple, pull out the factory strut and bolt in the new unit. Takes an hour or less to do both sides and you don't have to disassemble the factory strut like the billsteins.

I get it. The rough country was just loosening the strut and sliding in the spacer. Some of the top spacers made you cut the strut bolts. More work than the average diy driveway dude may want to do. Just my opinion.

I did the spacer first go around, Hated the ride and ultimately went with the RS9000 quicklifts in the front and rs9000 rear shocks and Cognito upper control arms. Ride is drastically improved over the stock set-up and the adjustability on the shocks is nice as well, you can find a nice balance between ride and handling without dropping 3500 dollars for FOX, ICON, King or Radflo adjustable coil overs. Granted they wont perform off road like them but I doubt many people are doing the type off roading to warrant the cost for them either.

That's awesome! I really haven't found a lot of difference in the ride with the lower spacer. I've only been highway driving though

All that said. I have a problem with the spacer I'll just go full retard and do the 6-7" lift. I hope the spacer will keep me happy

Do you have any more room in there for more tire? I ordered 275/65-20. Hope it doesn't rub much
