Does your front wheels stick out farther than the rear?

 

The knuckles push the front out I'm assuming.

Ive got some black rhino Dune wheels now sitting in the garage waiting to go on. Just cant get into these rims on it now...

Is iridium:

purple - yes

blue - yes

green - yes

brown - yes

grey - yes

 

It is a freakin' chameleon! The paint's heavy metal flake and different color iridescent flakes take on different hues under different lighting, sky, and surface conditions.

 

Day one when I got home on a day with a clear blue sky the wife asked why I bought a purple truck. Later, under a cloudy sky it looked grey, looking at it reflecting the lawn it looks green, blue in a parking lot under a clear sky, etc Looking closely under a bright Sun, I still don't know what color it really is? All that matters is that whatever color is projects, it looks great!

Hey guys. Clean trucks all around. I've been waiting to post a pic until I was satisfied with my set up, but that's never going to happen. I've just run out of truck money for the time being so here's mine (for a while)bb6dbc61f2d77c6125b538dc800193c3.png065c44689d4fe1ea4608e81fea7a9fa5.jpg

OK I need specs on this. This is the look I'm going for. Lift? Tires/size? Whay steps are those? And I can't make out the rim...Brand? Looks awesome

Rough country 2.5" lift/level (but it's not level, still 1" take). Fuel mavericks. 295/55/20. Westin hdx dropsteps. I drilled out the logo and but some black rivets in the holes of the steps.

 

Edit: I think the offest is +19 on wheels. I used someone else's setup on here with a black Denali.

That truck looks perfect. Did you have 20s before? I have 18s stock and was think on just going 18s again for a better ride over 20s. I thought they were hdx. How do you like them? Enough room to step up and down with? Do you have any fro t shots to see how the tires sit in the wheel well? Curious if they are flush or stuck out a bit.

I had 20's on a tundra with original bfg's. it rode good. This is a little rougher with the nitto's. but these are more aggressive. Steps are fine. I'd rather not have any, but the kids and wife whined too much about it.

 

Don't have any straight on pics, and it's nasty today. But they stick out about an inch. Nothing drastic, just enough to see a little meat.

 

Thanks for all the compliments!

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.

      Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
