The flares are only 1.25" flares like Spurshot. Tires are 1/2" thinner that spurshots, should look fine. Though i could go with 12" tires or so. The flares are there to complement wider tires for sure. But also give it a look with the G2 bumper.

I thought Spur was running 305s. His truck is sharp. If you go for a similar setup, your truck will look great, too.

He is running 305/60/18s but it comes out at 32.6x12x18

 

285/70/17 comes out at 33x11.5x17. We're talking roughly 1/2 an inch of width difference. His flares aren't over exaggerated like the full size fender flares either.

 

Imagine this but with a different rim, atm rhino glamis, 2" level, black g2 bumper, black rear bumper, iridium metallic smooth 1.25 fender flares. I think given the 12mm offset the 11.5 tire is going to stick out more than most think on stock fenders. Might have to get both bumpers color matched. Haven't decided yet.

 

I'm going for a G2 looking build but iridium metallic so to speak.

Just make sure you get what you want. If I had to do it over again, I would have gone with a -6 or -12 offset. Please ignore the dirty garage and poor pic quality.

Nope. It's the new G2 bumper from Southern Comfort Automotive. They are supposed to be going up for sale soon on the upgrades page of scaperformance.com

What exactly is SCAperformacnce. Just went and checked the website out. Do you just pay them to trick out your truck for you?

They purchase trucks from GM and then sell them to different dealers. Also you send them your truck to get one of their packages put on or you can order parts from them.

They do more than just GM trucks but the majority of what they do is GM.

I went with the skyjacker 2 1/2" kit, I'm -18 offset minor rubbing at a full lock. Trimming takes cares of most of the issue. Ill snag a few more pics when it lightens up! Glad this helped

I have been debating stepping up to 20's but I think I am going to stay with my 17s for now. Does anyone have input as to what tire size i should run? I have a 2.5 RC leveling kit. Thinking of going with 295/70/17 Trail Grapplers, Toyo MT, or Cooper ST MAXX.

 

Thanks for your help in advance

Between MT I would go with toyo or nitto.

 

For agressive hybrid I would go with toyo RT or mickey Thompson ATZ p3.

 

295/70/17 or 285/70/17 would also be my choice of tire size

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
