Ok guys I'm just trying to figure out what I want to do before I actually do it, I'm planning on getting a Rough Country 2.5 leveling kit for my 2015 silverado crew can LT.

But I want to know what's the biggest tire I can get without rubbing or very little, what size rim would you go with, what offset, and what width tire as well? Th91be0a833f5e4c1dc09bb437300ba370.jpganks for the help in advance.

Yeah that looks very nice how much did your fuel economy drop? How does it ride compared to stock?

Fuel economy wise for me was hardly noticeable, I still get around 17-18 sometimes even 21 depending on the road I'm on. Even if I don't go off the cluster I know about how much gas I used to use on stocks and it's barely any difference. The ride compared to stock was an unbelievable change, it's very soft and makes most serious bumps less noticeable. I've gone down some pretty rough caliche roads with jagged rocks and it handles just fine. It all really depends on you as a person some people may think other wise but this is how my experience has been

I got the rough country 2.5" and yes I installed it, not hard at all but I do recommend a few extra hands

I have one more question. What did you do with your tire pressure monitors in your new wheels? & Thanks for all the info, it's been greatly appreciated!

Just was wondering how your truck is doing have you had any problems lift or tire related, and how many miles you got with everything on? Thanks, getting ready to place my order!

Doing great! Have had absolutely no troubles at all besides the slight rub on the sway bar but that has done nothing to cause problems besides take a little paint of the sway bar itself as expected. The lift has a little over 24,000 miles on it, still holding up great even after all the rough back roads I've had to go through. And the tires have 12,000 on them again no troubles at all! These Toyo Mt's are amazing cause even after 12,000 they still look like I just had them put on.
