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....

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I agree, there is no one answer fits all as every rig is different, one may be pulling some little aluminum fishing boat while another is towing a monstrosity that weighs a lot and hopefully the owner if the rig has some prior experience to know what drive mode they should choose.    It also struck me and this is from watching a few of those boat ramp escapades videos in the past, Ford being one of the vehicles that has the auto front axle hubs and sure enough its found out that one hub has crapped out and won't engage and may not have manual hubs to even select on both sides so they are on the boat ramp stuck with no four wheel drive and spinning .... they flat out need a tow to get up the ramp and deal with the vehicles new found issues. That can happen to all brands of pickup, finding out either four wheel drive or 4 low isn't working right at the time its needed it to work as some electronic crap has failed.

      Its possible you never had the joy of the crappy boat launches we tend to have around here or really some of them are just grades down to the river if its a river scenario and the conditions change all the time with the river levels and silt deposits. Some of the lakes we went to years ago, there was no such thing as a cement pad that went down into the water that the trailer stayed on, it was gravel maybe up to the water line and then duck crap much beyond that so sinking the boat tires into mud. Of course some of the more established lakes had a cement bar type boat ramp but sometimes it was covered in green slime closer and certainly within the water and a two wheel drive had all sorts of fun if one had to touch that slime with the rear tires.    A neighbor of mine had made a comment years back with his chev truck that was probably about the same year as yours but a half ton extended cab 4x4 and he a a fiberglass boat with an inboard so it wasn't a feather weight and he had gone out to one of the large popular lakes in the area and don't ask me how this happened but he was in two wheel drive as he figured he didn't require four wheel drive for that boat ramp and somehow upon pulling the boat out he twisted one of his drive axles. I suspect it must have spun and then grabbed on the cement ramp and shocked it to the degree of twisting it. He would have had the standard 8.5 or whatever it was axle housing as the 9.5 ring gear like my truck has also has larger drive axles as far as I know. Anyway he was feeling a vibration driving home and had it checked out and a shop found that the tire/hub was wobbling because of the axle had twisted so in went a new drive axle. After that bad experience he said he made sure to put it into four wheel drive to lower the stress on the rear axle. Of course that is where an HD truck can handle a lot more stress and no doubt these newer half tons with their larger ring gears probably have larger drive axles as well to match vs back in the day.

      Desirable - as in does someone WANT one, aspire to have one. Could reasonably buy any car they want and CHOOSE these instead.    I didn't watch the video, why did they win?

      The use of absolutes like "always" to describe gear selection, and giving free advice at a boat ramp sounds like a recipe for disaster. It's a boat ramp, not a farm, for starters.   IMO gear selection should depend on the obstacle. If low range is working and this is a slower speed, controlled ordeal, I'd keep using that.

      I had a boat for many years, never had a problem even with a 2 wheel drive 93 Silvy for 20 years. Good tires, proper use of the gas pedal worked.
