Can't complain about the price.??  Leave tires on until they wear out or you trade/sell your truck.

Bravo!   IMO best looking truck ever posted on this forum (and there are some sweet trucks on here) like that red one above.  But those stocker 20 chrome spider webs win!   It looks like a stock truck on steroids...just the way I like them.  No debadging, dechroming, expensive rims, or other nonsensical "mods"...just height and big rubber.  Well done...I'm jelly!

Just as I want to build my 2015 Denali. Great job. No stabilatrac issues either I assume

You most certainly can use OEM wheels with the BDS 6" kit.  If you have the Denali 20s then they are the same width as my 20" snowflakes, and I'm 99% sure the GM 22s are as well so you shouldnt have fitment issues unless there is something specific to the BDS Denali / Magnaride kit that I'm not aware of.  I do have 1.5" BORA spacers on the rear not out of necessity but simply to even out the front/rear track width after lifting.  No issues whatsoever with the Stabilitrak or other vehicle systems.

I also have stock 20s with 35x12.5r20 Toyo RT and the BDS 6inch fox coilover lift and they fit perfectly.  Only the stock 20inch or 22inch will fit the BDS fit.  Anything smaller will not clear the knuckle.  I have no rub and I even lowered the coilovers to 4.5" of lift and no rub.post-130528-0-20933700-1499777915_thumb.jpgmsg-130528-0-09109500-1506472962_thumb.jpeg

Hi, I can't wait to get the BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A KO2's on my 2015 Silverado. How do you like them? I'm still running the Continental CrossContact LX20 275/55r20 that came with it new. Always wanted A/T though. Planning on getting them in the fall. Also If you can check out my post with additional?

Ditched my aftermarkets for some OEM GMC 18's - Not a "lift" per say, but Bilstein 5100's set to 1.8" 285/65r18 Falken WildPeak AT3.

Yes gm 20x9 wheels 35x12.5r20 toyo open country rt tires and bds 6 in kit.  The front fox coilover were adjusted down 1.5” to give it some rake and make the cv axles level. Bds didn’t offer a 4 inch kit with fox coilovers when I installed but they do now. I have no rub at all

You didn’t have to add any spacers to the wheels? Ride quality? I’m just checking before I install on my Denali

Dfcg23upt4sDxbjt-kUWew36K3IsCfxwK-7VSbvrOnly difference in kits is the brackets they include for the magnaride sensors. Brackets to extend rear shocks. Probably little cheaper for my truck. I will have it on by the end of August! My birthday present!

Would you go with the 4 inch kit now? 6 too high??

    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
