Leveled 15' 2500HD , what size tire can I go to?

BombThreat · January 22, 2016

I just leveled my front, and would like to fill the wheel wells a bit with larger tires. Do you guy know what I could get away with? Currently has 265/70R17

Thanks guys

You stole my truck! I'm getting mine leveled next weekend and I'll want taller tires as well, so I'm going to follow this thread. I'm considering 255/80R17 since I like the pizza-cutter look and the MPG over wider tires.

17's? I didn't think they would fit over our brakes.

Yep, they're out there.

I've got 35s on mine. No trimming, no scrubbing besides a tiny bit on the frame

Humm, every 2015 GMC Sierra 2500HD around here I've seen is 18 or 20 inch wheels. Must be on the Chevrolet side.. Should be able to put some pretty good size tires on it. I hope to buy some fall / winter tires and wheels to change to when weather gets bad.

Have a Great Weekend..

Wade, what's your tire spec's, are they skinny's?

wade_660 · January 23, 2016

35/12.50 toyo mt. I had 275/65 toyo mts on it but they looked a little too skinny for me

This makes me hurt inside. I really wish I went as big as you. Only if I found this forum a week earlier. My 285/70/18 look good, but not that good.

Are you planning to keep your stock rims? If you, you should be able to run a 285/75/17. They're a 34" tall tire. Also, a 295/70/17 should fit too. However, with stock rims, that's probably about as wide as you'd want to go. Those factory 17's are really narrow. With aftermarket rims, you'd have a few more options.

That looks awesome! What's your lift/level setup?

Cranked t bars and bilstein 5100 shocks

Sweet. Factory UCA's? Any lift in the rear? How's the ride?

wade_660 · January 26, 2016

Stock ucas. Doesn't ride great, but it didn't ride great when I bought it. I'd say it's the same ride as stock.

I am running 295 60r 20s on my 2015 3500hd. Its only been cranked up about an inch and a half in the front because I need some rake.

My wheels are 20x9 with a zero offset. No rubbing or trimming needed. Fits perfect.

Wade, did you cut your front lower valance? I want to cut mine so it doesn't hang so low, and yours looks like it is cut up a bit. Cant just take off, it'd look funny.
