So far so good, only a bit of rubbing at full lock in reverse !

Those are the rims I was looking at but was afraid they would stick out past my fenders with the -6 offset. How far do your tires stick out? I was going to go with a 285/70/17 tire do you think they would stick out compared to your tires? thanks

Can anyone tell me what offset I would need for my 14 Silverado to keep my wheels and 275/70/17 tires under the truck without flares? I was looking at 17x9 Pro comp metal mulisha 38 wheels with Mastercraft courser mtx tires but the wheels only come with a -6 offset I am afraid they will stick out past fenders. I don't want to buy fender flares. I also have a 2.5 rough country leveling kit on my truck. thanks for the help.

Sorry I meant 285/70/17 tires.

So does anyone know what other sizes Toyo will be releasing for the RTs? I saw Josh's post where his 33x12.5x20s didn't rub at all which i'm excited about because that's what i had kind of planned to get. Though they're a big tire. If they would release 275x55x20 i'd likely go with those.

No idea on what sizes. I read in an article when the R/Ts were unveiled that they would have more sizes early 2015. But no word on when or what sizes. I emailed Toyo about a month ago, maybe 2, and asked if they had plans to make the R/T in sizes such as a 295/60/20 and they had an automated reponse of "Thank you for your tire size suggestions/request. We plan to offer more sizes in early 2015. Thanks for your interest in Toyo Tires!"

I took a straight edge on the front of the tyres and measured the distance to the fender ... It's about 3 cm. The front face of the rims look like they are pretty level with the fender but the tyres bulge which is what is sticking out. I think the 285/70 17 would do the same. Just not as much.

 

I love the look and the wheels are awesome, just what I wanted but I live in a very dry climate so I don't have any muck thrown up the side of the truck.

Bah, i wish they would unveil what sizes they're going to release. I mean 33x12.5x20LT is perfectly fine to me, it's what i intended to get. Though they might be a touch wide i'm pretty sure i'd be astounded with them. But if i can go 275/55/20 for cheaper which comes to 31.9" diameter and 10.5 width that'd be what i'd go. I'm equally curious as to how a 33x12.5x20 would affect my fuel economy, toyos are already heavy anyway.

Thanks for your response and pics. From the pics it doesnt look like the actual tread bars stick out past you fenders. In PA we cant have the tread bars out past the fenders, the sidewall doesnt matter. Your truck looks awesome, mine is brownstone and I want the same look as yours.

I was wondering if anyone else has ran 295/70R18 with the rough country 2.5" lift? I looked through the leveling forum with minor luck. I plan to use the stock 18" rims and dont want to have any rub. Thanks in advance.

Mounted!

18-inch Method Mesh wheels, 275/70/18 BFG All Terrain tires, and a 2.5-inch RC level (front only). Zero rubbing, zero road noise, nice traction on and off road, and no wobbly street feel. Very happy with the setup so far.

 

Do you have any more pictures that you can post. That set up is sweet.

Got the new setup on...

 

3.5" "Level/Lift" + 1.5" Body Lift

22x10 ET -24 Moto Metal MO964

5/16" Wheel Spacers All Around

33x12.50R22 Toyo M/Ts

No Rubbing / No Trimming

 

Haven't decided what I want to do with the center cap yet. The stock caps look terrible and they look nicer without a bulky cap so I may try to fix up some type of push through...

I'm curious about this as well. A 295/70R18 is over 34" tall and almost 12" wide, so i have a feeling they will rub some. Especially if you have your front valance on and mud flaps like my truck. I was thinking this size when i level my truck, but may get 17" wheels and 295/70R17's. This would be close to a 33.5", which i think would fit very easily. Wheel of

Dude that's sick. Did you have the rims painted? Also what are the exact spec's on the wheels?

Thanks RickRod! The wheels were powder coated matte bronze prior to installation. The wheels are 18x9 Method Mesh with -12mm offsets. I bought them from Tire Rack.

    • This is NOT impact damage nor neglect. There were previous class action lawsuits because of such paint preparation st GM manufacturing plant. Not just the Cherry Red Color. This paint is applied in three processes to obtain the desired color.  The manufacturer will cover for 36 months or 36k miles only. That rust is actually corrosion because of the paint process failure. Corrosion is covered for 100,100 miles or a certain months. However their corrosion doesn't include this type. Go figure. Clearly manufacturer knew from previous paint issues. This started 3 weeks ago out of the blue.  
    • Is it time to put a piece of tape over the CEL? 
    • consider doing electrical testing?  I would guess some power or ground wire/connection has a problem.   alldata.com has wiring diagrams, connector pinouts and diagnostic procedures you can use to find where the problem is.
    • can you tell if the reader is actually trying to get codes, and the pcm is reporting none, or is your reader just silently failing because it's not communicating with the pcm?
    • Any joy with this truck seems to be short-lived.   The CEL for P0172 ("bank 1" too rich) is now "intermittent".   I'm not sure where to check, or re-check, and my energy to keep chasing problems with junk is wearing thin. The P0172 seems to set as I'm coming to a stop, completely off the throttle, when fully warm. At least, that's what it's done the 3? times it's set.   Everything appears normal on the scanner EXCEPT long term fuel trim. There's only one bank on this vehicle because it's an OBD 1.5 with only one upstream O2 sensor. At idle, it's around -16.4% and will dip to -18% occasionally at idle or off-throttle. LTFT approaches 0 when throttle is held at 2500rpm. Short term appears normal, much closer to zero all the time. The LTFT tells me the engine is running rich at idle but compensating at higher load. But, why?   The EVAP purge valve doesn't appear to be leaking/sucking fuel vapor continuously. Is it sticking just as I come to a stop and the engine is choking on fuel vapor and sets the P0172? But that doesn't explain the persistently negative LTFT. Disconnecting the purge valve doesn't seem to make any difference.   I suppose that leaves another dang issue with the fuel injector. A leaking fuel pressure regulator, a new leak in the spider, or a leaking fuel injector/poppet valve I didn't see, or a small crack in one of the spider legs.   The vacuum line leading to the fuel pressure regulator doesn't have raw fuel in it. It doesn't even smell like fuel when it's pulled off, not until you suck air through it, then you can tell it leads to a fuel component. I'd consider that normal? Nothing is signaling this is a FPR issue from the outside, at least.   The oil smells like fuel but it's not building volume. I've noticed most oil in most engines smells like fuel to some degree so it's hard to say if the smell is an issue or not. Or if the engine just still smells like fuel because the crankcase was full of it a few hundred miles ago. But it's been changed twice since that original issue of the leaking fuel line dumping fuel into the intake.   Patience is running very thin. Every win seems to be accompanied by two steps backwards, or another issue that leads to removing at least the top half of the intake manifold. Enough! LOL
