Wheel size and offset are huge factors. You're more likely to fit large tires with wheels that are close to stock offset and width.

Check the leveling thread. You can fit a 275/65 r20 but some will debate weather it rubs. If you wanna play it safe

a 275/60r20 is a better option.

The 65 only barely rubs at full lock in reverse.

Will just be a daily city driving. Anyone have pics of 275 and 305's? Truck came with 275/55 and they don't look wide enough to me. Height seems fine

BDS shows that 35x12.5 fit on their 2in leveling kit

 

Definitely not.

 

BDS was the first to do the 4" lift just to fit 35s

Here is one 35s on BDS 2in level http://bds-suspension.com/bar

Just email BDS they are very good about answering ?s

They answered me in a day. Im planning a BDS fox coiler lift this summer. I like the look of the 4in lift in the front but wanted a little rake in the rear for towing a boat so it doesn't squat down. They told me I can do the 6in coiler kit and set the ride height on the coil overs at 4in plus I will be able to run my stock 20s on 35s.

There's the link. Hard to believe 35x12.5 on aftermarket wheels with only 2". :happysad: Not sure how much trimming he had to do though.

 

I did come across a guy on instagram with a 3" level on stock wheels clear 35s, "no problem" he said.

I emailed the BDS tech awhile back on those 35's on a 2" only. They said on 5.75" B/S (stock offset 20's) they fit with little rubbing. I asked for more clarification and they said the air deflector and fender liner rubbed and not on the sway bar or anything else that he remembered. The tires are technically 34.8 x 12.5 iirc. I still am not 100% sold on it though as there are no supporting pics. It looks great though.

      Trim level custom/pro

      Are you going to take long trips in it?  If so, try out the seats in the various trims. For me the lower trim level seats were not comfortable.

      I have a 2016 that I bought new and still own. I'm around 129,000 miles now. The biggest problem was a transmission failure about 2 years ago around 95000 miles. No warning, just failed while driving down a back road. A reman GM transmission installed and it's been fine ever since. A few other minor problems along the way. I am in no hurry to replace it. It's been paid off long ago and do plan on driving this as long as I can.   I will admit I am leery about all the additional electronics in the newer models and feel that it is just more potential problems. I think there's actually more than I would have wanted in this 2016 but so far so good. I think even if something major like lifter failure happened, it would still be cheaper to at worst, drop a new engine in than buy a new vehicle.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I’ve own several successful businesses. I’ve bought homes and lived in different states. I’d witness several generations buy homes and survive in different economic circumstances. You get awful sippy when people have different experiences than you do. You live a life. I’ve lived a life. It seems our experience has been different. You can point out generalized statistics. Some people learn how to thrive when the odds are against them. Living in different states does make a difference in a persons quality of life and economic outcomes and opportunities. That’s a fact Jack. It’s my truth, my life. Hard work and long hours the right environment made my families life easier. And yes moving to a different state increased the odds of that happening. Stats are generalized. People who thrive don’t make excuses. They beat the odds. Others get mad and point to those statistics. I guess that’s you. My post pointed out how you helped people beat the odds. Somehow your panties got in a wad. Go figure.

      Good question, I don't remember for sure but I believe it was the HD. I will check and get back to you.

      Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE. We're not going down the location rabbit hole. I'm aware of what economic migration is. I've lived in four states including Texas.   It's what "Purchasing Power" means.   I'm not telling you what I think. I'm telling what the government, your government, data shows.   It wasn't an argument. It wasn't a suggestion. It was a statement of FACT. You are absolutely entitled to your own opinion. Your not entitled to your own facts. If you and I were, they wouldn't be facts.    fact /făkt/   noun Knowledge or information based on real occurrences. "an account based on fact; a blur of fact and fancy." Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed. "Genetic engineering is now a fact. That Chaucer was a real person is an undisputed fact." A real occurrence; an event. "had to prove the facts of the case."

But you and I? We are not doing this.
