Hey everyone I'm new here and I am looking for a set of tires for my 2014 Silverado with the Rough Country 2.5 inch lit. I've seen many people run them with minor rubbing issues and if it rubs too much i may downgrade to a 295/70r18. I am keeping the stock 18 inch wheels as well. if youve done it let me know and if not, feel free to leave a pcik of your trucl with stock wheels, little lift and big tires! thanks and ill be looking forward to some responses!

I have 35x12.50s on stock 20s with a 6.5" lift and I come close to rubbing in the front in certain scenarios.  Hard to imagine you could run 35s with just a level kit.

RC 2.5 inch level up front with 295/70R18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on stock 18s. It only ever rubbed on the liner, until I trimmed it a bit.

I am running 35x11.5 Nitto ridge grapplers on 2.5" RC leveling kit. I trimmed the wheel liner and it doesn't scrub anymore except on full lock it does hit the sway bar.

Whats the point of running 35s if you cant even drive normally without rubbing, let alone anything offroad. Just run 33-34in lol

I do it for the looks. I love how dudes with 33s stare discreetly when I pull up next to them. Mine doesn’t rub on the streets and I have a set of 33s that I slap on once a month when we hit the trails. Works for me.

I'm thinking of getting 35" or 34.5" tires, my truck is pretty much identical to yours. If I did a NorCal trim to the front fenders would that eliminate any rub when flexing? Also do you know what offset your wheels are, I currently have 0 offset 17" wheels.

      2026 Silverado ECM location

      By sFrank · Posted

      So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.

      "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
