Fishtail8 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Hey guys, I'm still running stock 275/5520's on my 15 Sierra SLT with a 2" front and 4" rear drop. Has anyone played around with getting a bigger tire under the lowered trucks? I'm doing research and planning for when the stock tires burn off and wouldn't mind getting a little more beef under it to get that sport truck look. I've been scouring tire manufacturer websites for possible sizes to change to and thought I'd put it out there for your opinion. Perhaps we'll end up starting a tire fitment thread for lowered guys like the lifted ones have? Anyways, chime in if you have an opinion!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
14 Silvy Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I'm running the factory 275/55/20 on a 4/6 but it Witt rub on large dips and at full lock in reverse. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not having any luck searching for a build thread.(not at home and using my phone) Really digging the side exit exhaust. Oh yeah did I mention that I love this truck?

No build thread sorry. Some details: 2016 2WD 5.3 Volant Cold Air Intake, Elite Engineering Catch Can, Borla Exhaust Borla Tips, 4/7 Belltech drop, 22" OEM wheels, Continental Tires, Vinyl wrapped bumpers, Denali Grill, Center Console swap. I ordered the truck with almost every option available including spray bed liner, navigation, parking sensors, and lane departure. Just my weekend truck planning to do more but taking it slow.

dla Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) If you are staying with the 2/4 drop you could easily go to a 305/50R20 and get about 1 1/2" more width while staying at the same 32" overall diameter. I'm running 275/40R22 (30.6") up front and 305/40R22 (31.6") out back on a 5/7 drop... Edited January 25, 2017 by dla 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishtail8 Posted January 25, 2017 Author Share Posted January 25, 2017 Good looking trucks showing up guys, loving it! I'll probably be staying at the 2/4 partly because i love the ride with a subtle mod. I've been looking at those 305's and will do some research to see if i could fit em on all 4 corners with no rub.

Marv88 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I'm only lowered about 3" in the rear right now with 305/40r22's all around however as soon as it warms up a bit I will be installing my 2" drop spindles along with 2" lowering leafs for a 2/5 total drop and will let you know how it goes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
