Just ordered 275 60 20. Debated for a week. installing Wednesday with 2.25 lvl kit.

 

Post pics soon

so if guys are running these 275/60 20s with no level whats the largest confirmed size with a 2" level. no rubbing and no trimming. sorry if im being repetitive but all the numbers and input is getting a little confusing. im about to order a set of 275/60/ 20s myself. i want to avoid trimming or rubbing completely and the 275 are more cost efficient but im starting to think i should go bigger.

I have a 2" level and would go with 275/65-20 if I were to do it again. Lots of room with the 60's

I just had the 2" level kit done and added 295-55-20 Pro Comp MT2 (33" tire). Went with the Pro Comp for the 50k warranty

I'm about ready to pick up a set of these myself. Anyone have any trouble with balancing issues? I noticed several reviews on BFG website complained of it.

I had to have mine road force balanced. They needed alot of weights to balance. Could have been my new wheels too.

 

They ride smooth now at 38psi cold.

 

I have 275/65r20 on 2 1/4 leveling kit and don't rub at all on a 2wd.

I have 285/65/18 with a 2" level and they do not rub at all and no trimming needed to be done. This is with front mudflaps as well. My wheel offset is +18.

anyone have a 275/65/20 setup with no rubbing or trimming....are offset going to play a factor here as well ?

What is everyone running for PSI for best ride/ best gas mileage?

 

Which do you want, you can't get the best of both. You want the best MPG crank up the air pressure, want the best ride lower it to absorb bumps.

I am looking at getting these K02's for my 2010 sierra denali. I have a 2" level. I was going to get 275/60/20 but now i see the 2014+ can go with 275/65/20.. was wondering if i can get away with that or if the older sierras have a smaller wheel well?

 

Thanks,

I'm running 275/60r20's on stock suspension and i keep mine at 40 psi cold. The ride is still smooth in my opinion, cuts down a little on road noise, seem to be wearing evenly across the tire and i'm averaging 18+ mpg consistently. So far extremely happy with the truck and the tires. I've put about 25,000 miles (only 6,000 with them on my sierra and the rest on the f-150 i traded in on the sierra) so far on them and they still have lots of tread left. If they continue to wear like they are i see no problem getting 50-60k miles out of this set.

Same here. I've never seen so many weights on a wheel!

When are they coming out with these for the stock Z71 18" rims? They're leaving out a huge chunk of the market here....

    • No I didn’t watch a video of a person who analyzes oil for a living explain general oil usage. For clarity I did ask my brothers one who runs our equipment business. The other who runs our old ROW business about oil usage. Nothing has changed since I retired. Their personal vehicles or work vehicles use no oil. Not enough to see on the oil checking device. Then I pondered. I like to ponder. In this extended oil changing world with oil change countdowns or lights. If engines used say a qt every 2500 miles or up to even 4000 miles. With oil changes reaching as high as 15000 miles. Normal for most people is eight to ten. Vehicles should potentially be seizing up all over the place. Especially in hilly terrain. Just how many people actually check their oil? Maybe 10 percent. Those are the people that probably change their oil early. I like to research used car listings. I have five favorite dealers I check. They all list carfax with their listing. It’s rare to see vehicles with anything but extended oil changes. Transmission service, forget about it. I’ve seen Honda and Toyota certified vehicles up to 100K miles and ten years old. With nothing but normal maintenance. Isn’t nice we all have different experiences and believe our way is the best. You certainly get backup for whatever you believe. Life would be boring otherwise.
    • Interesting rumor. Dealers near me have been tight-lipped so far, but if this reveal actually happens next week, I'm really hoping they finally give the HD a proper interior overhaul. The competition has been eating their lunch in the cabin department for a while now.
    • There are a few good takeaways in that video that pertain to this thread, certainly the possibility of the oil control rings having buildup, the fuel injectors and how clean or not that they are ending up affecting the pistons rings carbon buildup, and the fact that its normal up to a point for a given engine to use some oil, and that the oil quality that is being utilized is part of that ring clogging up issue as well.   I was talking with a neighbor yesterday who has a baby LZ0 duramax and he had bought it slightly used but it does consume some oil and he has switched over to 5W-30 Euro spec oil and in this case that never made a difference in consumption over the factory 0W-20 recommendation. He finds it uses a quart in about 3500 miles and as he goes a ways over that distance he adds oil to full and goes another 1000 miles or so and then changes oil and is typically at 40% or so left on the oil monitor at that point with his use case of quite a lot of highway miles and more limited in short run use. I don't know what other LZ0 engines are doing for oil consumption but that is what his is doing. 
    • I dont care what Lake says. Goodnight. 
    • Ok well I guess Lake disagrees with me on a few points. I call oil consumption pretty basic. Rudimentary. He calls it "really complicated." I think 1qt consumed in 3k miles is a lot. He says that's normal. In 22 minutes, he'll use his natural talent to explain oil consumption to anyone watching this video. He covers everything from obvious engine damage to how normally functioning healthy engines consume oil by design. Lake explicitly states how you drive will impact oil consumption.   Shut up and watch:
