Can I fit 33x12.5" tires on my stock 22"rims? Do I need to put the fox front shocks to raise the front up 2" to fit these tires? Or are they going to be too wide?

 

On another note, I walked by a truck that had Atturo Trail Blade M/T tires and loved the aggressive look. Has anybody used these tires before? Are they just cheap knock offs of Nittos?

I think they'll be too wide. Look for a tire 11 inches wide or less.

I've been searching for some. I can't seem to find the aggressive tires that fit 22" rims without going bigger than 11". It seems most of them are made for 20" rims, I don't want to go buy new wheels...

Atturo has some good reviews on another forum I follow. I would have bought a set last winter but couldn't find the right size. Good luck with 22s, they aren't necessarily a wheel made for aggressive tires. Ton of guys running 33x12.5 on oem 20/18" wheels, but most are running RC2.5" level up front with that. I don't know what your dimensions are compared to the smaller wheels.

Your best bet is to find a tire that's 285/45/22.

Well I was hoping to go a little larger tire. I already have factory 285/45R22. This is turning into a lot more work than I was planning on having to do if I need new rims!

 

I did find out the oem rims are 9"x22" and offset is 23mm if that helps anybody.

Find a dealer that'll give you 17" base model takeoffs. That's what I'm gonna do when I need tires next (which I really really hope is gonna come soon haha).

I'm putting the 33x12.50x22's on my stock 22" wheels. Picking up the tires tomorrow and my 2" leveling kit comes in the mail on Thursday.

Finally somebody who has actually done it! What tires did you buy? Please send me a picture when it's done too. Let me know if there's any rubbing before you put the lift on and after its on. Guess I'll go order the fox 2.0s to level it out.

That looks awesome! Did you have any rubbing?

Thanks!

It rubs a tiny bit in full lock reverse, but that's it.

My last Silverado had 305 20's and it rubbed way worse.

I really like this set up.

    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
