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.

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....

      I am sure that was quite the pass experience and not a great place to experience during the winter when the conditions are not good. I've seen video of that pass and also more detailed information and pictures about the wrecks at that one hair pin turn where tractor trailers have flown right off the cliff and I am sure from all the warning signs that you know the exact curve that was !. After all there is a reason why a song was made about Wolf Creek Pass !. By the way and I didn't realize this either when I bought my truck as its nothing I even thought of that would be programmed into the cruise control and this occurs in either the basic or the more advanced cruise that controls your distance behind a vehicle and that is the brakes going down a hill are being applied as soon as the vehicle goes a certain speed over the set cruise speed. While it certainly does force downshifts in the transmission as you found out with cruise on while going down hill, its also dragging the brakes as needed to keep the speed controlled to what the cruise was set to. For me, I find that unsettling simply because I have no concept then as to how MUCH brake input is being used a and just how hot are those brakes getting and the wear factor as well. I can see that system getting a person into trouble on long mountain grades while pulling a trailer as it would not only be standing on the brakes of the pickup without any driver input, it would also be automatically applying the trailer brakes and it could cause a run away unit by overheating the brakes. Its one thing on a shorter hill and if the driver allows it to do its thing but on a long mountain grade is where things could get so out of hand. As someone a while back on this forum said, they had someone following them at night I believe on a down grade and had the cruise set and the person behind them could see the brake lights being energized all the way down the hill. I figured when I saw your comment that you didn't know and would have no way of knowing that your truck was applying the brakes and that you would and rightfully so assume you only used the brakes when you pressed on the pedal to slow down more than the cruise set speed for the slower sharp curves. So its good knowledge to know this about the newer GM trucks, certainly when doing any descending on long mountain grades. In the future try kicking off the cruise and use the the manual mode on a pass to see what that is like as I know myself when I first experienced it I thought no way can this engine be holding me back this well and tried the same hill in manual mode and sure enough the engine was revving way up and still could not hold the trucks speed down like it could in cruise mode.    Fuel mileage, that is where a really low sleek type of car can do better at higher speeds, certainly it starts sucking fuel too but a tall pickup is pushing massive amounts of air and also allowing a lot more air under it and the tow mirrors as in elephant ears pushing through the wind  as well. Driving like grandpa is about as good as one can do when driving one of these if trying to get the best fuel economy they can. I bet these trucks would get the best mileage they can if driven on a freeway in Florida if not busy traffic at a sedate speed and that sea level elevation without hills, vastly different then Colorado !.
