Michelin LT295-70-18 Tire Replacement 3500HD SRW

[chrisb1]

I have a 2011 3500HD Silverrado SRW. I just was able replace my Michelin LTX  LT275-70-18 with LTX Defender LT295-70-18.  The rear had plenty of clearance with factory mud flaps. The front is stock with mud flaps.

The new tires required me to slightly trim the inside 2in of each mud flap. The truck drives fine with no rubbing. The new tires are load rated 129 at 4065lbs per tire. Great for camper hauling. I have an Arctic Fox 990S camper and tow a 22ft jet boat. 

Stock wheels, alloy.

Good to know that size fits on the previous generation HD. Is your front end set at the stock height?

 

Also, you know we love pictures, right???

Yes, the truck is 100% stock. I just loaded my Arctic Fox 990 today and the truck drives great. Each tire is good for 4080lbs. The tires handle the 4321lb camper 

great. No sidewall flex due to the weight in rear.
