Santa lifted my truck and gave me these tires in 275/60R/20's. Yesterday I drove it 560 miles and averaged 20.1 MPG. This is with the air damn removed and the lift. 6.2 engine and 70MPH average on interstate 5.

Wow that 6.2 is Awesome. .. I've about 7,000 miles on mine. Same size as u , hopefully it's cause of the colder temperatures this is from my last oil change 6aa1a09d4e63105578d0fe1520b17a08.jpg

Really don't care my mpg was dropping before i put the tires on. I think for me these tire and rims will be my winter setup and get some new rims an tires for the 3 nice seasons. I think the bfgKO2 will be the most popular tire this year

much better!!The best psi I've found is this. 35 cold front. 32 cold rear. They will warm up a couple psi makes a awesome ride the mpg drops anyways. .. i couldn't believe how quiet they're 8,000 miles and they're still quiet. Enjoy

Here's mine, picked her up last week 6.2L Z71. 2" Tough country level and 275/60r20's. Also, had the dealer get rid of the chrome 20's that came from the factory and swap in 20" brushed aluminum.

Looks perfect!

Not great pics, but you get the idea. 285/65r18. I'm very pleased at how quiet they are. I'm still trying to find the sweet spot for psi.

Lots of pix with clean, new, oiled up, knarly, off-road tires on waxed trucks. None with dirt on them in conditions they were made for? :dunno:

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

    • Still looks like a rivet to me in the pics, I don't see a nut and none of the pics show the head of the screw. But if you says so.....
    • Thanks for all the help so far!   I did try right from 2026 right down to 2021, and only from 2023 down lets me select the option for tire psi change, but I get the vehicle not supported error!   I'll definitely try it under Chevrolet after work today, and I'll get the sensor number from gm for my truck tire sensors. And I'll let you know if it works for me under Chevrolet!   And if that doesn't work, I'm going to guess that what @Atlas said about maybe I have a different body control module could be true!  
    • From where I'm sitting this sounds like a compatibility problem. I'm assuming the 2007 was a 900-series truck, and not an 800-series (they were sold side-by-side in dealerships that model year), since it starts and runs.   This is why I HATE post-2006 vehicles. Everything becomes a huge problem when you try to keep the thing running for longer than the manufacturer has designed it to.    I can't remember when Global-A architecture started - either '10 or '11. For your sake, you had better hope it's '11, or you're going to be spending some BIG money to correct this cluster-eff. That's something you need to find out before doing anything else. You may have several computers bricked ... but the fact that it runs tells me you MIGHT be ok here.     EDIT: Just did a quick refresher. You're screwed. This is Global-A. The 2 systems are NOT compatible in the slightest. Once you get the correct engine in there that IS compatible, you're going to need to see how many computers are locked. Absolute NIGHTMARE to straighten out, too. Your buddy might be better off cutting his losses and finding something else.   Welcome to post-2006 vehicle electronics. This is why I quit the industry, and drive nothing built after 1994. This stuff takes all the fun out of wrenching!

    • True, hard to say what differences there may or may not be between Chev and GM as well as a production year or mid year part change either.    I just found it odd that under the Sierra choice on the Autel that many of the last few years of production year did not include the choice of changing the tire pressure but if that is an Autel thing or a GM thing as to why the choices were not there. Knowing what tpms sensors are on the truck should give some guidance into which choices on the tool even make sense to try as I wouldn't give up just yet with the tool but I guess he will see what if anything he comes up with if he finds out a bit more info and tries a few more things on the Autel.
