Thanks for all the pics and info everyone. I have made my decision and I am going to go with 285 55 20 KO2's once my truck arrives.

So is no one using the 285/65/20's?? Measures 34.5", and should fit with a 2.5 level

 

I plan to order a set next month, but I also like the look of the width on a 305/55 (33.2")

I'm running 305's on my truck but they measure out to be a 33.5" tire. Each manufacturer is different so be sure to check that! post-156299-145951780785_thumb.jpg

For those of your running KO2's...I have a few questions.

 

I factory Ordered a 16' SLT All Terrain a few weeks ago. I will need to either get

a) good winter tires living up in northern ontario

b) good all terrain tires that are rated for the winter.

 

I had KO2's on my 08' Canyon before...but I found they kicked up a lot of sand, rocks, dirt etc on the rocker panels....although my Canon didn't have running boards, it had mud flaps.

 

I plan on getting the WeatherTech MudFlaps...and the AT will have running boards...

 

My question is...how is the rocker panels with the BFG AT KO2's? Do the tires do a lot of damage (like sand blasting) to the rockers?

 

Thanks!

Install the OEM mud flaps and BFG tires and be done with it.

I picked up my ordered '16 on Saturday. I put LT275 / 55 / 20 on it this morning. It is a business truck, so no lift or anything so I went factory size.

The guy who pulled it out of the bay said "If you ever get bored of this truck, you know where I work."

 

LOL.

 

The before and after - Goodbye GY SRAs!!

Just had a few more pics loaded on the Imgur account so here ya go .........

bought 305/55/20 going to run on 20 inch stock ltz rims

 

looking at the 3.5 inch rc lift with upgraded UCA moog bJoints

 

has anyone else ran this setup, i find it hard that you are not rubbing with 2.5 level lift ??

 

i have not found any other 4 inch kit that allows you to run your stock wheels except rough countrys

 

not fabtech, tuffcountry, ready lift nothing all need bigger backspacing rims but not laying down the cash when stocks are completely fine to me.

Skip the Moog ball joints and install Spicer, the HD trucks the have aftermarket upper control arms burn through the Moogs, the Spicer units are known for being the best.

What exhaust system do you have?

 

I like the tip and angle.

Flowmaster .... it was installed by our local custom shop by the dealer. It's a dual tipped system, same tip and angle also out the other side.

 

I have since blacked out the bowties and installed a set of Amp Research Powersteps ... along with a few other small things and added the Range AFM Disabler as well to get rid of the dreaded V4.

 

Also added a 2-1/4" ReadyLift set of blocks in the back (replacing the stock 1-1/4" blocks) giving me the needed extra 1" rake in the rear .... the front "Level" made the front about and inch higher then the rear (was told it may be a 3" front level but the block at the top of the strut is only 2-1/2 from what I can measure. So I had the "Cali" lean going a bit till I added the 1" extra in the rear. It is now 99% perfectly level and looks AMAZING!!!.

 

VERY Pleased with this trucks so far ... almost couldn't be any happier. :D
