Post your 2014+ wheel/tire set-up


Recommended Posts

No one has anything with the stock 17 wheels ? :( I must be the only doofus with 17" wheels on a 2.5" RC 255/70/17 :( lol...

There's a couple guys running 17s on here. One is running 33s and the other is running 35s both on aftermarket wheels

I guess I'll be first since it was my idea (LOL).

 

2.5“ Pro-Comp level, front only.

18" factory Z71 wheels, 18x8.5, +24 offset

Toyo Open Country AT (not AT2) LT275/70R18

No rubbing, no trimming.

Looks great. I think 18s with more rubber look better than 20s or larger. Good job for doing my homework for me.

What do you guys think of 33's on 17" wheels? I much prefer the look of more rubber than wheel, but have not seen a Silverado with that combination. Thinking of the Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 255/80/17

IMO 255s look too much like pizza cutters on a truck... But it would get great MPG

I would go 285/70/17 if ya run 17s.

Where are you guys buying wheels? Online/local. If online, what's a recommended site. Shopping around for best deal.

If you mean after-market, non-GM wheels, I always use Tirerack.com. They have wheel and tire packages, including sensors, and a wide variety of wheels with guaranteed fit, mounted balanced ready to bolt on. Another reputable site is Discounttiredirect.com (they offer free shipping).

I love the looks of 33s on a 17" wheel for the Silverado. I agree with Full Lock, if you gonna go 17s do a 285/70r17 or if you wanna go a bit bigger a 295/70r17.

 

Here's a couple picks.

 

285/70r17, honestly when I get my truck I'm most likely going with this exact set-up but different wheels.

295/70r17, I'd love to do this but in the end I bet I chicken out with the rubbing. Love these tires.

Nice look VMax. Good to see a Sask boy running the same skins I want to get. Just need to decide on a set of rims before I purchase.

I have the rough country 2.5 level lift kit on stock tires for now. I will be getting bigger tires on the 18 inch oem rims. I like bigger tires smaller rims. Rides better handles better for actual off road use and has that classic 4x4 look. I had 305s on my 2004 with 17 inch rims and it was smooth riding and I loved off roading it when I could. My question really for those who have the 18 inch rims with biger tires. I saw a couple on here, and was wondering if the 305 60(65) R18 rub at all? I dont mind a little rub but better if it doesnt. I will be pricing tires for a while until I cant pass up new tires. I will post a pic up of my setup now with the leveling kit on stock tires. Then as soon as I get the new setup a new pic.
