GMC Accessories Site Questions: Wheels

[Harpoon]

I'm looking at new GMC 1500, switching back to GM after owning my first and last Ford product (Eco boost 150), but not sure which GM truck yet probably a GMC.

 

I went to the GMCaccessories.com site and looked at the wheels available. Decent choice.

 

I plan on running two sets for ordinary driving 9 months then hunting/winter season for balance.

 

Can these 22" wheels be swapped onto a new truck for the original 18"'s with no other changes like a recalibration/change of speedo gear (or anything else)?

 

I see the Carbon Edition series has 22" wheels, but wanted to ask you all just to be sure.

 

This one GMC accessory 22" wheel shown in the link looks to have black inserts on the top two spokes only of the wheel and at 4 and 8 o'clock....am I seeing things/my display or is this the design?.

Thanks in advance for the help......I am burnt out already looking at options and packages from GMC and Chevy, they certainty are not friendly anymore (at least to my old brain).

As long as the tire sizes are the same in diameter, it doesn't matter what size wheel you have

No inserts just shadow/glare. Stock size is 285/45R22 which would be the same overall diameter of the tires that came stock with 18's

. If I were to purchase a second set rims/tires would check out OE WHEELS LLC and click GMC wheels sets, some tire shops will order them. Don't forget lugs ,locks and TPMS , valve stems .

I was at the Chevy dealership in the parts department and overheard a conversation between the parts guy and a customer. The parts guy said GM won't sell the 22" wheels unless they're supplied a police report or insurance claim. I don't know how much validity there is to that statement, but I found it interesting.

That would be false. That is probably their excuse for them being difficult to get and expensive.

[Doobs41378]

Yeah my parts guy quoted me $4100 for 22" rims, tires and sensors. I passed since that was more than I wanted to spend. If I ordered a truck from the factory with the 22's they were only $2800 extra.....

I ordered a 2015 Denali and had the dealer install 22" GM wheels on it, along w/ the tires GM provides for their 22" wheels, when they took delivery. I did this because the dealer gave me a great price for the wheels vs. ordering them installed on the truck at the factory. It definitely required reprogramming of the speedo. I suspect that if you were going to switch these wheels back and forth, you would also require a speedo reprogram. IIRC, I believe it would've been off by about 7 mph at 65 mph, but I don't recall whether the speedo would read faster or slower than actual speed. It would obviously make the odometer inaccurate as well.

They 22 inches wheels came on my truck when I got it. I put a bed rung in the back, put on the AMP folding running boards, and tinted the windows.

This info is incorrect, as long as you use the stock size tires that GM provides with the 17", 18", 20" and 22" wheels then there is no calibration change needed as they all have very similar overall tires height and rolling circumference. There is no way for the dealer to re-calibrate the ECM under the factory system on the 2014+ trucks. Only way to do it is thru aftermarket devices or programming.

Do you have any additional pictures of the wheels and in sunny conditions perhaps? I have the same color and tint too. I was about to buy some 22" and I'm not sure if I would like the silver vs. polished aluminum on the factory 20s. I'm very interested to see more pics if you have them!

[Greg the leg]

I waiting on my 2015 Denali 6.2 that I ordered. It's suppose to be delivered March 6th, after it gets here with the stock 20" rims, I'm swapping out those for a set of GM 22" chrome as well. Dealer said appx stock plus $2,000 to upgrade. Choices...

[Mi99z71]

I wish they had this rim in a factory 20". ( SEY style ) I only 2500 miles on my truck, and you couldn't get these on the NHT package. And I wanted the NHT package more than the rims.
