Post your 2014+ wheel/tire set-up

Chevyman3308 · September 3, 2014

I ran 285/65/18 with -12 offset on my Duramax with out a leveling kit, just the bars cranked a little. Had to do some minor trimming. A 1500 with a leveling kit has to sit around the same height right? I know the 2500's sit a little higher but I don't think it is 4 inches.

I have 2.25 ready lift, with 275/70 18 duratrac (33.4x11) on 18x9 moto metal wheels with zero offset. I ended up pulling bkac the back corners of the wheel well liners. Slightly touched.

2500 basically have a 1+ inch factory body lift compared to the1500s.

305/55/20 Duratracs, with a 2.5 level

Any rubbing? Trimming? And how's the mileage? I am debating on a 305/55/20 or a 285/60/20

Nitto has a new. to me anyway, Exo Grappler AWT. Not a lot of sizes yet but they do have 275/65/20, seems to be the popular one. They look great.

That looks like it'll be a nice tire. It's got the snowflake symbol so it should be good in snow/ice. I wonder if it will be as good as the Duratrac. If it's close it'll be a nice alternative as it will be available in several sizes the Duratracs aren't.

I like the look of them. Seem similar to the Duratracs. I will be looking forward to reviews, hopefully soon.

I have seen in another forum that 295/60/20 fit on a 2.5" level kit, so I was wondering if the 285/70/18 or the 295/70/18 would also fit on a 2.5" level? On stock wheels?

Here are the sizes of those tires:

295/60/20 = 33.9 x 11.61

285/70/18 = 33.7 x 11.22

295/70/18 = 34.3 x 11.61

Here is the link that I got the specs from:

I hope the link works.

Thanks in advance.

It also depends on what tire you want to run brand wise. some sizes are aren't available by all. 275/65/20 is a very open choice. It also depends how you like the width to look. Personally, I prefer the wider variants as long as there is still some good sidewall.

For the Nitto Terra's the weights are around 60 lbs for 275/65/20 and 68 lbs for 295/60/20 (I think. they removed weights from their site)

For the Toyo AT II's the weights are around 57 lbs for 275/65/20 and 62 lbs for 295/60/20

The Toyos seem to be a bit lighter, if the weights for the Nittos are correct. I found those on a random site. Haven't heard anything bad about either tire so really it comes down to looks and road noise if that's an issue. From reading, I think the Terra might be quieter, not that the Toyos are loud. There are lots of reviews going around though.

No, that is way to much offset for a 2" level…

The one on the bottom is running a 4" lift and 9", 0 offset wheels. Took a good bit of trimming to make them fit. I saw the cutting he had to do first hand. The 275 should be close to an inch narrower so should have a better chance however I think you could have issues even with those tires with the wheel offset you are looking at. If cutting doesn't bother you by all means go 295s

I'd rather not cut, I know the black denali is running the 275/65 without cutting or trimming on a +20 rim.
