285/65r18 and 275/70r18 will work without a level but the 275 may rub the carpet. Either will look overstuffed on a stock truck. Levels are cheap and easy to install. Stock 4x4s look like 2WD without a level.

 

I have 275/70r18 bfg ko2 and they don't rub at all. Didn't rub before a level either, although I would highly recommend you level it... looks WAY better with these taller tires.

eBay is a great place actually. I usually go on eBay find the place with the lowest price, call them and get an even lower price since ebay+paypal charge around 8-13% fee depending on your seller level.

Hey guys. I'm new here but have been lurking around for awhile. I'm having trouble deciding on a set of wheels. I've narrowed it down to Method NVs(black or machined face) or Mesh(black), also have trouble deciding between staying with 18 or going to 17s. I see alot of guys go with 17s with methods. Is there any real reason for that beside tire cost and more options? Here is a pic of my truck for reference.

18's are as small as I would go on these trucks. I think 18's on a level look perfect and 20's on actual lifts

If you look above to 5RWill's post... his truck is levelled with 17" method NV's and 295/70/17's i believe.

 

The offset of the 17's, tire options and the wheel to tire ratio is what attracts me to them.

Will,

 

Now that looks First Class, just enough "silver" on your wheels to accent and outline the rest of your truck nicely (IMO). :thumbs:

Thankyou sir! That's the only part i'm on the fence about. I used to note like any of the chrome but it looks pretty good with the wheels. Then again i want that SCA Sierra bumper and a black rear bumper. If i did that i'd likely dechrome it. I do want a bumper that's more low profile so that that the tires are shown more. Hell if the valence that baja kits offers somehow had lights i'd probably pick that thing up and a skit plate.

Amazon prime. Shipped to my door for free. Paid a local shop $15/tire to mount, balance, dispose of the used up wranglers.

How does the warranty work with that route?

    • I really wanted to go to the Fox 2.5's But they were like ~$1,500 vs ~$425 for the Bilsteins. And my research on FOX shocks was that they do not have a great reputation for longevity. I am sure they the FOX's are fantastic, but I know from experience the Bilsteins are rock solid for at least 150k miles. 
    • Conditions for Meeting a Cold Start   The ignition voltage is between 10 and 15 V. The barometric pressure (BARO) is more than 75 kPa. The engine coolant temperature (ECT) at start-up is less than 42°C (108°F). The intake air temperature (IAT) is between 2–32°C (36–90°F). The engine is OFF for greater than 6 hours or the following conditions must be met: The start-up IAT minus start-up ECT are within 12°C (22°F). The start-up ECT minus start-up IAT are within 50°C (90°F). Fuel level is between 25 and 75 %.   Circuit/System Verification Verify that all I/M System Status indicators report YES, and that no I/M Test DTCs are present.If any I/M Test DTCs are set Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle. If no I/M Test DTCs are set All OK. Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) System Set Procedure   Warning: Refer to Road Test Warning. Note: Do NOT touch the accelerator pedal until told to do so. A change in TP Sensor angle or an increase in engine speed may invalidate this portion of the test.   Note: An I/M Test DTC will not be stored or erased from the ECU except at the end of trip processing, which occurs 5 s after ignition OFF.   Ensure that the vehicle meets the conditions for a cold start listed above. If the EVAP I/M System Status indicator displays NO, perform the EVAP Service bay test if applicable. Turn OFF all of the accessories; HVAC system, other electrical loads, including aftermarket/add-on equipment, etc., and open the hood.   Set the vehicle parking brake and ensure the vehicle is in park for automatic transmission or neutral for manual transmission.   Start and idle the engine for 2 min.   Close the hood, release the parking brake and Accelerate at part throttle to 72–80 km/h (45–50 mph) with this speed maintained until the engine reaches operating temperature, 8–10 min.   Continue operation under these conditions for an additional 6 min.   Accelerate at part throttle to 90 km/h (55 mph) with this speed maintained for 2 min.   Release the accelerator pedal for at least 10 s. This will allow the vehicle to enter the decel fuel cut off.   Safely stop the vehicle, with the engine in drive for automatic or neutral with the clutch pedal depressed and parking brake applied for manual. Allow the vehicle to idle for 2 min.   Shift the vehicle to park for automatic and neutral for manual. Turn OFF the ignition and exit the vehicle. Do NOT disturb the vehicle for 45 min.   Observe the Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) System Status with a scan tool. All of the I/M System Status indicators should display YES.   If the EVAP I/M System Status indicator displays NO, turn OFF the ignition, ensure that the vehicle meets the conditions for a cold start, and repeat steps 6-11 three more times, or until the EVAP I/M System Status indicator transitions to YES. If the indicator continues to display NO, refer to the Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) System DTC Table to identify the DTCs that did not run.   If any of the I/M System Status indicators display NO, refer to the Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) System DTC Table for the indicator which did not display YES. The I/M System DTC Table identifies the DTCs associated with each I/M System Status Indicator.   Observe the I/M Test DTC information with a scan tool. Verify there are no I/M Test DTCs present. If an I/M Test DTC is set, diagnose the DTC using the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle and refer to Inspection/Maintenance System Check.   Observe the engine DTC information with a scan tool. Verify no DTCs are present. If a DTC is set, diagnose using the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle. After repairs, perform the Inspection/Maintenance Complete System Set Procedure to verify no further DTCs are set.       Looks like one procedure to me.  Repeated as necessary.
    • My 2020 AT4 6.2 has had the valve spring issue addressed at ~200 miles, front cover/pump replaced at 18k, water pump at 34k and idler pully at 65k.  I would agree with ditching by 100k unless you elect to go with upgraded hardware...say built 10l80 and an lt4 or l8p swap.
