275/65/20 without level


Recommended Posts

Posted

I've been searching about will a 275/65/20 fit a stock rim with no level. I was gifted a new set that came off a f350. They are not a aggressive tire. Michelin ltx a/t2s. My truck is a lease so I don't want to level it if I don't have too. I understand I might have to zip tie the wheel wells if that is the only rubbing. I've seen a few posts of people running a 275/65/20 without a level. Other say it's impossible. Anyone try this before?

I can't recall seeing a single person with those without a level.. I'm running that size with a 2 inch level and it rubs the carpet pretty good.. That's a 34 inch tire.

I run that tire on a stock 15 Sierra Z71 CCSB. It rubs in two distinct places. The driver side rubs in reverse wheels turned left about 15 degrees before lock and it is just on the plastic that is attached to the lower rear wheel well. The passenger side rubs wheels turned right low speed going either direction on the wheel well liner. The right side is easy to rectify with a zip tie to hold the liner back. Did that on 14 Silverado with same tires. Corrected problem. Driver side looks like plastic can be trimmed a bit. Passenger side you wouldn't know unless you were looking for it. The driver side plastic makes a very noticeable noise only in reverse. All in all not a deal breaker by any means. The truck looks and rides super nice with those tires IMO. Picture taken while doing some garage rearranging.

I'm running a 275/60/20 without a level and no rub anywhere on my 15 Sierra. It's really close in a couple spots, and the 65's I would think may rub in those spots that are close with the 60's, but just guessing.

    • 2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!  
    • Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?. 
    • He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it. 
    • I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.

REAR AXLE - 3.73 RATIO INC. GVWR, 11,350 LBS. (5148 KG) INC. FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST, INC. ULTRASONIC     I have been launching my new boat and noticed some things related to the parking brake.. I usually set the parking brake (habit) when on flat ground for typical driving.    When backed down on the launch ramp to launch the boat and I place gear selector into Park, the parking brake activates automatically. My second nature is to set parking brake manually and noticed I was turing the parking brake off.  The parking brake appears to be setting itself automatically.   I looked all over my owner's manual and only found references to being on an incline and manually setting parking brake, or at times parking brake will be auto engaged, but nothing specific to my situation.    When is the parking brake automatically engaged?  Under what specific circumstances?  Can the auto set parameters be changed?     I like the auto set feature.  It would be nice if always engaged when shifted into Park and released when shifted out of Park (like my wifes 2025 RAV4).   Thanks!
