the sr-a's I haven't noticed being too horrible in the snow as long as I'm in 4wd (auto). wet pavement though dang. but overall I agree, not exactly confidence inspiring to say the least.

 

the bfg's look badass on that truck. it will be interesting to hear when he chimes back in on how they ride/noise.

I can't find any mud in the parking lot of my local mall.

No rubbing at all. I do have a 2" leveling kit on the front. The ride is great, a little noise over the SR-A's, but I was expecting that. I will let you know about the mud after this weekend, headed to the hunting camp tomorrow.

thanks for the info and good luck hunting.

i didnt do so well this year, we didnt apply for the doe tags this season because everyone in my group said they just couldnt make it so we missed the draw... then all of a sudden everyones schedule just opened up but all we had were buck tags(and a lot of them...).

had a big moose, 3 big does and a fawn walk right by us.....

 

theres always next season i guess...

i was surprised how well my stock 17" tires did in the mud...snow and ice not so well...

love the look. I have the stock 275/55 ... what is the difference on the 275/60 ? Just wider? or taller as well?

Tire readings.....AAA/BB/CC.......AAA is the width of the tires in MM...BB is the % (ratio) of the width which equals the height of the sidewall....CC is the rim diameter.

 

So for ease of calculation we'll go with 300/50/20...The tire is 300MM's wide, the sidewall height is 150MM's tall (50% of 300) and the rim diameter is 20".

 

275/55 is 275MM's wide, and the side wall is (55% of 275) 151.25 MM's wide. 275/60 is 275MM's wide, and the side wall is 165MM's wide. So the 275/60's are 27.5MM's taller or just over 1" taller.

Do you think the 275/60/20 fit without rubbing no level on truck just stock?

Been using bfg ko's on my trucks for the last two decades, never one flat or tire problem other then them wearing out after 50+ thousand miles and years of abuse. I simply do not have the need to shop any other truck tire brand imo.

I am interested to hear how these handle not just snow but cold...they look awesome.

 

I respect the tire compound and sipe design of a dedicated snow set up is the best and we run that on our AWD RX350 my wife drives. I am looking for something in the better category of the good-better-best continuum negating my need to run a dedicated snow setup. On the few cold days we have had thus far (-18ish Celsius) the SRA does not make the good ranking.

Looks good. How much did they run you?

 

Looks like the sidewall finally got a new look. Looks really mean.

I just ordered a set today. They will be at my local tire shop on Monday and they will be installed next Saturday morning. Lots of early snow up here in Canada and it's like a zoo at any tire store you go to, huge line ups everywhere. :cheers:

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By newdude · Posted

      HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.

      2021 vs 2026 handling (1500 X31 Sierra)

      By dennismc · Posted

      I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it.

      frustrating P0446 code

      By Old Bay · Posted

      So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.

      loose lug nuts

      By newdude · Posted

      Any grease on the stud threads of any kind?   Wheel studs should have NOTHING on them for proper torquing and so the nuts don't back off.     Are all of the mating surfaces clean?  So wheel, rotor and hub?     We've had plenty of trucks at work with that wheel, this is a first to me.  Makes me think they've got a lube tech putting anti-seize on all the wheel studs or some kind of grease, and they need to stop doing that.  To have 11 other trucks with the same exact problem.

      2027 Chevrolet Silverado: Official Discussion

      By Flynlow · Posted

      I was a Chevy guy for years, then switched to GMC because I liked the looks better.  I'm actually thinking I like the Chevy looks better than GMC for the first time in a lot of years.   One thing I know for certain, the new GMC dash is hideous!  Chevy wins this one!
