Figured I'd add a few pictures to the thread as well. 2014 Silverado 1500 with a set of 24" KMC slides.

 

I've been looking at the Slide and the Skitch. I'm glad you posted this pic, the slide looks better than i had imagined.

I'm glad you found them useful, I'd like to take credit picking those out, but unfortunately I cannot. They were on the truck when I purchased it. On day 1 of owning the truck I was hell bent on selling the wheels and tires, by day 2 they grew on me and by day 3, I really liked the look so, they are staying on the truck ;)

Iridium Metallic and Fuel anthracite. Not sure which fuel rim though. Looks pretty good.

That said the method machined face NV is starting to seriously grow on me. I need some place to go try on wheels. Two at a time. One NV machined face on the passenger side and one black on the other side so i can make up my damn mind.

Any idea on what lift and tire size that is on the first truck? Looks really good! If it was leveled itd be perfect!

Thinking i'm going to go method NV machined face, and if i don't like it i'll have them powder coated black. Or vice versa get them black and have them powder coated anthracite or matte grey if i don't like it. Looking at the link turns out these were powder coated :( Wish i could buy those NVs from method looking just like that.

I go chrome and sometimes black wheel skins with stock 18 and Goodyear SRAs. Can't wait to get a more aggressive tire.

I like those wheels and love the color....wish they made them that way.

 

Anyone have any ideas of powder coating costs for a set of wheels?

Saw this on an Iridium AT the other day and it looked great. It looks like more of a flat silver than bright chrome.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I agree, there is no one answer fits all as every rig is different, one may be pulling some little aluminum fishing boat while another is towing a monstrosity that weighs a lot and hopefully the owner if the rig has some prior experience to know what drive mode they should choose.    It also struck me and this is from watching a few of those boat ramp escapades videos in the past, Ford being one of the vehicles that has the auto front axle hubs and sure enough its found out that one hub has crapped out and won't engage and may not have manual hubs to even select on both sides so they are on the boat ramp stuck with no four wheel drive and spinning .... they flat out need a tow to get up the ramp and deal with the vehicles new found issues. That can happen to all brands of pickup, finding out either four wheel drive or 4 low isn't working right at the time its needed it to work as some electronic crap has failed.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      Its possible you never had the joy of the crappy boat launches we tend to have around here or really some of them are just grades down to the river if its a river scenario and the conditions change all the time with the river levels and silt deposits. Some of the lakes we went to years ago, there was no such thing as a cement pad that went down into the water that the trailer stayed on, it was gravel maybe up to the water line and then duck crap much beyond that so sinking the boat tires into mud. Of course some of the more established lakes had a cement bar type boat ramp but sometimes it was covered in green slime closer and certainly within the water and a two wheel drive had all sorts of fun if one had to touch that slime with the rear tires.    A neighbor of mine had made a comment years back with his chev truck that was probably about the same year as yours but a half ton extended cab 4x4 and he a a fiberglass boat with an inboard so it wasn't a feather weight and he had gone out to one of the large popular lakes in the area and don't ask me how this happened but he was in two wheel drive as he figured he didn't require four wheel drive for that boat ramp and somehow upon pulling the boat out he twisted one of his drive axles. I suspect it must have spun and then grabbed on the cement ramp and shocked it to the degree of twisting it. He would have had the standard 8.5 or whatever it was axle housing as the 9.5 ring gear like my truck has also has larger drive axles as far as I know. Anyway he was feeling a vibration driving home and had it checked out and a shop found that the tire/hub was wobbling because of the axle had twisted so in went a new drive axle. After that bad experience he said he made sure to put it into four wheel drive to lower the stress on the rear axle. Of course that is where an HD truck can handle a lot more stress and no doubt these newer half tons with their larger ring gears probably have larger drive axles as well to match vs back in the day.

      Desirable - as in does someone WANT one, aspire to have one. Could reasonably buy any car they want and CHOOSE these instead.    I didn't watch the video, why did they win?

      The use of absolutes like "always" to describe gear selection, and giving free advice at a boat ramp sounds like a recipe for disaster. It's a boat ramp, not a farm, for starters.   IMO gear selection should depend on the obstacle. If low range is working and this is a slower speed, controlled ordeal, I'd keep using that.

      I had a boat for many years, never had a problem even with a 2 wheel drive 93 Silvy for 20 years. Good tires, proper use of the gas pedal worked.
