 I haven’t seen many threads on this tire size just wanted to share my experience with 295/70/18 size tires they fit quite well and fill in the fender wells very good only rubbing issue is the Inner liner felt 

 By the way I’m running stock wheels

Any rubbing on this set up? If so, where and how bad? Did you trim?

When you leveled the front did you level the rear as well? I saw on the original post with the 295/70/18 tires you said 2.5" RC level kit and rear blocks. Are they 1" rear blocks? I really like the way it looks with those tires!! Thank you

Thanks,

I’ve got a 2019LD. So basically a 14-18 Silverado. Running a 2” level in the front only no rear blocks. Stock black z71 wheels with 295/70/18 Firestone mud terrains. Looks awesome drives nice. Full lock you barely hit control arms, but you’ll hit them with stock wheels anyway. Also hit back fender liner in corner. It’s not terrible. I zip tied mine back and it’s helped, still rubbing a little but u can go lock to lock. If you had not super aggressive mud tires it would be better as well. Truck sits higher, definitely feels a little slower as those are big tires, and fuel mileage has dropped 2L/100k

I have the 2.5"front/1" rear RC level lift. I am running 275/70/18's. There is no way I could fit a 2" taller tire without modding the fender wells. More offset would help with backside of fender clearance but mess with front side. I don't believe none of the "I don't rub 35's on  2.5" level" stuff

      Did you ever get this worked out? Mike is doing the two start thing now too. This is after a new camera back in December.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I’m doing an experiment on a vehicle I don’t have much money in. I’m going by the premise that after they last 100K miles they were no mechanical problems with assembly. Or defects with the parts. With oil changes by the minder for the first 127K miles when I acquired it. I quickly went through low mileage oil changes then settled on 5k oil changes with close to 170K miles on the vehicle currently. I did have the option to turn off the cylinder deactivation. I didn’t on this vehicle because it’s in ECONOMY mode at least half the time. It should be a no brainer frequent oil changes are the key. The manufacturer gets away with the long oil changes with its severe service  maintenance. Just ask them what is normal.

      Hot air constantly blowing through floor vents, drivers side only?

      By baglie1 · Posted

      Even set to "recirculated", the air pushes out and is hot. I have noticed that sometime it doesn't want to switch between recirculated/vented air. Say it is set to Circulated Air and I want to switch to Vented, when I click the Vented button, it just quickly lights up/clicks and immediatly switches back to Circulated. It's done this a few times now. So maybe it is an actuator getting stuck? But then, that doesn't explain the hot air when everything is off does it?

      Gas Prices

      I wonder what the price is out at the coast, Big Sur or other out of the way locations as I bet they are charging quite a premium over the in land pumps.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Were you looking at the HD trucks on the GM website or the half tons as that makes all the difference. As far as I know there are only two options for the HD trucks and that is the standard 2 speed transfer case or the 2 speed transfer case that has the added 4 high auto feature and they put that transfer case by default into the LTZ and High Country although its optional in the LT and not sure if its available in the work trucks.    The half tons, that is where its been a total mess in my estimation for a few years now with most trucks below the top trim having the single speed transfer case as standard but with the option of having the two speed such as one would get by choosing the Z71 package, however then not being able to get the two speed transfer case with the towing package unless it was a higher trim truck AND had the 6.2 gas so one could combine the towing package gearing diffs with the two speed transfer case. Having said that if its a trail boss package then it gets the two speed transfer case but not necessarily able to get the tow package as it would depend on trim level and engine chosen. Believe me, people have bought the GM half tons assuming "of course it will have a two speed transfer case" only to find out after when they really pay attention to what they now own .... crap, there is NO low range !.    I don't believe Ford or Ram have gone that way yet with their half tons but like I say its been a few years now that GM has done this with the half tons.
