2.5 RC level with 285/65/18 Toyo Open Country AT2's.

That looks really good! Did you do something different to raise the rear of your truck? It looks taller in the back than most with the RC 2.5" lift.

Thanks man. It has the 2 inch blocks in the rear also...I should have added that.

Stock 22 SEY Wheels on 285/45/22 Nitto Terra Grappler G2. Quiet A/T tire that weighs about 30 pounds less per tire than the Trail Grappler (which I wanted). Since my truck has a 3:08 rear differential figured I should stick with the Terra Grapplers so I won't rob to much power from the truck. Going with the Nitto also significantly reduced the vibrations I was feeling above 75 mph.

 

 

Got any overall pictures of your truck?

First post...log time lurker. Here's the '15. 2.25" quick lift on 285/65r20 KO2s. Sorry for the photo quality. I'll get more later as she's going in for a 6.5" zone, amp steps, linex, tint and some other odds and ends this Wednesday.

 

Is anyone running a 4+" lift on skinny tires? I have 1k miles on these KO2s and it'll be a PITA to sell them for new tires and rims if it looks too funky.

Are these a - 24 offset and which lift kit did you go with. I also want 20x10's on either 295 or 305 but I ordered the 20x9 and 295's with a rough country 4 3/4 combo lift kit. Seems like a big difference between a +18 & - 24 offset. Haven't installed anything yet. Thanks for your reply!

What kind of grill inserts do you have

Posted

I finally selected a new wheel and tire combo after more than a year of reading and studying this forum. There is a ton of valuable info here along with a lot of nice set-ups. Going in, I knew I wanted to go to a smaller wheel with more tire as I was looking for a more off-road look. The OEM 20” wheels are nice, no question but in order to get a decent sized tire on them you really need to go with more lift. I did not want to go more than the 2.5” kit.

 

Here are the specs:

 

Truck is a 2014 Sierra with All Terrain Package. It’s sitting on a 2.5” Rough Country Lift/ Level kit.

 

Tires: BFG KO2 LT285 / 70 / 17 (overall diameter is 32.7” and width is 11.5” on 8.5” wheel)

 

Wheels: Fuel Beast 17 x 9 with a -12mm offset

 

Other mods: Full HID conversion from Strictly HID’s (Headlights and fogs), Recon lighting: Big Rig ICE LED running lights + tail light bar. T-Rex Billet grill (black), and I started de-badging (tailgate center logo).

Looks great, love those wheels.

Hello everyone. I am new to the site although I frequent the site often. So much useful information. I have a 2014 Silverado Z71 LT. I just picked up a brand new set of 20 inch LTZ rims today and have a 2 inch RC lift on order. Here is the progress thus far.

Black and Chrome go well!

I hate to make this post because I'm sure it's been made before but I really don't want to read through the last 74 pages haha....I'm about to buy some XD Series Crank 20x9 chrome wheels and was just wondering where you guys think is the cheapest place to buy them is. Going to be getting new tires as well so didn't know if a certain place was better than the next on a package deal. Any advice would be appreciated.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
