Mine are 11.5 wide but yea I can see the issue with 12+ wide. I'm close with that size but no cutting or need for spacers

Awesome to know!

 

was your rub pretty bad to begin with? Mine is actually more turning forward than reverse which i thought was odd. Mine rubs just shy of full lock, but if i go to full lock it chirps badly

Mine would only rub on reverse and turning and occasionally forward on turns through inclined roads.

OP did you end up going with spacers? I'm looking into spacers right now since I really like the All Terrain package wheels I have.

I have Camburg arms and stock wheels with 285 70 18 Nitto exo grapplers. No rubbing anywhere. This is with a little over 2.5 inch lift

 

Happen to have a pic of this? That's almost a 34" tire I've been debating.

I know this is a super late response to this thread (sorry, didn't see it until now), but YES. I did end up going with the 1.75" bora spacers on my 33s. I went from rubbing on the UCA to slightly rubbing on the fender liner at full lock. I feel pretty confident that if I would have gone with 1.25-1.5" spacers instead of 1.75, I wouldn't have any rubbing at all.

My wheels were actually stolen off my truck, so I went aftermarket.  But I can confirm that 1.25" spacers do fit on factory snowflake wheels, that's the setup that I put on my dads 16' Silverado.

Did you have to trim any to make this wheel and tire combination fit with the 1.75" spacers. I am considering 1.25" wheel spacers with the same wheel , tire, and leveling kit combination but would prefer not to do a norcal mod.

      Mangoal or FitcamX OEM Dashcam?

      Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge.

      There are no stickers in your glovebox?

      Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
