New guy here...been watching this forum unfold while I’ve been doing research for Lifts/Wheels/Tires and Running boards for my new Black AT4. I need some suggestions for wheels (black preference, like matte more than gloss, and not a huge fan of the chrome beads surrounding the outside of wheels). I’m getting my truck project started next week and doing the following: 4” Rough Country Suspension Lift (made for the AT4), Nitto Ridge Grapplers in either 295/65/20 (35.12x11.77x20) or 35x12.5x20 size, new wheels in either 20x9 or 20x10 (still trying to decide on the brand and style), and then the amp-research power running boards. Here’s a picture of what the truck looks like now. Only mods so far are a Bakflip 2 MX trifold cover, and Ceramic Lumineer window tint (20% on all windows, and 35% on front windshield). The stock wheels are 275/60/20 (can’t find what the stock offset on these are though). Any thoughts/suggestions or comments please let me know! Thanks! And hurry cause this project is starting next Thursday!

I don't know if this is true but I was told stock rims are somewhere around +30 offset. You will also have to worry about the back spacing on the back of the rim to clear the brake caliper. .450 will not fit. From what is looks like .470 will. That's of course if you don't add spacers. I'm trying to place an order next week as well and have been doing research since January as there's not enough out.

customoffsets.com has thousands of wheels, and they list the backspacing as well.  On a 20x10 negative 18-25 offset, backspacing can vary from 4.5 up to 5+.  gothp28 is correct, 4.7 and above seems to be needed with the new calipers.  

 

I personally like the new Fuel Rebel and Fuel Blitz, both come in solid black (20x10 -18 offset)

So on rough country website and after talking to their engineers they said that anything 4.5inches or greater for backspacing will fit the new large calipers on the AT4. The Hoss 2 wheels 20x9 (with 4.53 backspacing) in gloss black with a -12 offset, and the 295/65/20 (35.12x11.77x20) are what I think I’ve decided on. The white AT4 on their website is the 35x12.5x20 with the hoss 2 in 20x9 with a -12 offset, and the tires stick out approximately 1.25inches from the body/wheelwell...that one looks great but wanted a bit tighter in to cut down on rock/debris kick up and personal preference on aesthetics. Hard part is finding a wheel you like with the right dimensions hah...

What rough country told you is incorrect.  In the video above, the Arkon Lincoln 20x10 -25 offset, w/ 4.52 backspacing didn't fit.  The Method MR701 17x18.5 0 offset, w/ 4.75 did fit.

 

Also, they make the Hoss 2 in a 0 offset, that has 5.0 backspacing.  I'm wondering if that is what they're running on the white AT4 on their website (12mm of offset difference is less than 1/2inch of width).  

 

edit* upon further looking, they're definitely not running the 0 offset.  So IDK lol

The truck in that video and the AT4 must be different because I know the guy who did the build on the white truck and he confirmed the specs for me...another issue is the actual design of the wheel. Wheels that are more flat (instead of having angled spokes, as in angled immediately towards the outside/towards the outer tire sidewall) won’t fit, but with the specs I mentioned prior along with the appropriate wheel design they do fit. That’s why the Hoss 2 fits in those specs. A greater number of wheel designs will fit the greater the back spacing and/or with the addition of a spacer

haha, picking wheels is the hardest thing to do!  I have a Trail Boss but still have the same issues with the brake calipers.  But everytime I think I found the wheel I want, I find something else.  I think I have finally narrowed it down, but still cant pick, so frustrating.  I am looking at the Fuel Vandal, Fuel Coupler, XD Buck and the Hostile Sprocket.  Pretty sure i want the Vandal, but the others have my attention too!  Good luck in your search.  I also like the Fuel Maverick, but seeing they are pretty much on every other truck you see on the road, I wanted something a little different.  Although I do like the idea of having a 20x10 -12 instead of a -18.

I've called customoffsets 2 times and To be honest there fitment specialists have not been able to help me. The last time a called was after that video came out and he told me basically that exact rim and a larger tire 34-35 with an offset would fit when he was totally wrong. I just said thank you for your help and hung up versus fighting with him. I was going to order with them but a local place said if they don't fill pick out something different.

Yeah, it sucks because despite the actual wheel size and offset, it’s the wheel design and depth from the spokes to the mounting plate that are so variable and not listed in specs, and is what’s messing everyone up with these 2019’s...it’s never been a problem before due to the smaller brake calipers, but now with the larger ones we are all running into that problem. Only real solution is to call the manufacturer or distributor and ask them to actually measure that distance, then you’ll know if it’ll fit. I’ll update y’all with pics throughout the build. Keep the suggestions coming!

I’m in an out of parking garages all day, and I know the height on my AT4 is 78.4 inches. That is cutting it close in a lot of garages. Does anyone know what a leveling kit for AT4 will do to overall height? If it’s a 2” leveling kit, will it raise the top of the truck two inches as well?

Posted

Almost. Since the back isn’t changing height the cab just pivots upward most of 2”. I’d use 2” as a “safety figure” for that situation.

What tire are you running? What wheels, they look great

So after initially speaking with rough country, who said with 100% conviction that their new 4” suspension lift for the new AT4 replaced the 2’’ on the truck from factory (for a total of 4” lift), have now said the lift increases the overall height of the truck from where its at now. This would effectively give my truck a 6” suspension lift (which I don’t want to go that big). How can people not know what they sell...I mean really? Come on people!

It says directly on the website that it is on top of the existing 2” lift for a total of 6”.

I thought i would post this to help anyone looking for rims and tires i had a hard time finding anything on this truck . Heres my 2019 gmc sierra at4 with 4p08 4play rims with 33x12.50x22 we had to level the truck and add a 1/4 inch spacer to bring rim out off caliper and some triming had to be done on the mud flaps so it didnt rub but wow what ya think .

What Leveling Kit you used?

    • consider doing electrical testing?  I would guess some power or ground wire/connection has a problem.   alldata.com has wiring diagrams, connector pinouts and diagnostic procedures you can use to find where the problem is.
    • can you tell if the reader is actually trying to get codes, and the pcm is reporting none, or is your reader just silently failing because it's not communicating with the pcm?
    • Any joy with this truck seems to be short-lived.   The CEL for P0172 ("bank 1" too rich) is now "intermittent".   I'm not sure where to check, or re-check, and my energy to keep chasing problems with junk is wearing thin. The P0172 seems to set as I'm coming to a stop, completely off the throttle, when fully warm. At least, that's what it's done the 3? times it's set.   Everything appears normal on the scanner EXCEPT long term fuel trim. There's only one bank on this vehicle because it's an OBD 1.5 with only one upstream O2 sensor. At idle, it's around -16.4% and will dip to -18% occasionally at idle or off-throttle. LTFT approaches 0 when throttle is held at 2500rpm. Short term appears normal, much closer to zero all the time. The LTFT tells me the engine is running rich at idle but compensating at higher load. But, why?   The EVAP purge valve doesn't appear to be leaking/sucking fuel vapor continuously. Is it sticking just as I come to a stop and the engine is choking on fuel vapor and sets the P0172? But that doesn't explain the persistently negative LTFT. Disconnecting the purge valve doesn't seem to make any difference.   I suppose that leaves another dang issue with the fuel injector. A leaking fuel pressure regulator, a new leak in the spider, or a leaking fuel injector/poppet valve I didn't see, or a small crack in one of the spider legs.   The vacuum line leading to the fuel pressure regulator doesn't have raw fuel in it. It doesn't even smell like fuel when it's pulled off, not until you suck air through it, then you can tell it leads to a fuel component. I'd consider that normal? Nothing is signaling this is a FPR issue from the outside, at least.   The oil smells like fuel but it's not building volume. I've noticed most oil in most engines smells like fuel to some degree so it's hard to say if the smell is an issue or not. Or if the engine just still smells like fuel because the crankcase was full of it a few hundred miles ago. But it's been changed twice since that original issue of the leaking fuel line dumping fuel into the intake.   Patience is running very thin. Every win seems to be accompanied by two steps backwards, or another issue that leads to removing at least the top half of the intake manifold. Enough! LOL
    • First off you mentioned "Toyo Says" and then gave the pressures 45/50, was this some person at the tire shop that pulled those numbers out of his head ?   Now of course I can't know your exact axle weights front and rear, however I have much the same pickup as yourself other than not knowing your starting weight as per the pounds the truck rolled out of the factory at due to the options yours did or didn't come with or what you have added beyond the extra tire weight. The correct way to know 100% where a person is at is by weighing each axle with the typical weight the vehicle is driven with and that means taking into account passengers and making sure you figure in a full tank of fuel and a little grace for whatever you may put in the bed "groceries" !    I am looking at and not that it really matters as all the tire companies use the same charts anyway, but I am looking at the comprehensive Toyo tire chart in the section that your tire falls under and I know it sounds confusing but your tire is not an LT metric tire like your factory tire but instead because its a standard inch measured tire its under a different category called an LT floatation series tire. That makes a difference as LT metric tires they don't want to see run below 35 psi at highway speed where as with the LT floatation series it can be run down to 25 psi on the highway as long as the weight on the said size of tire is agreeable with or less than that minimum 25 psi. It blows many people away that how is this physically possible, an empty truck for one thing and larger tires with the same size wheel diameter have a lot more air volume so they can carry the same weight as the smaller tire with less air pressure.    So my truck, I have the stock 275/65R20 wheels and tires and I have a bit of weight in the box with a bak flip cover and a rubber bed mat and some tools and spare gas. The front of my gas truck weighs a bit more than some trucks of the similar spec due to double batteries and alternators. However with full fuel and just me in the truck I am weighted such that I can run 40 front and 35 rear and so that is what I have done since day one.    If I base your truck at or slightly below the weight of my truck, in theory with your tires going by the tire chart you might be right around a minimum of 30 pounds front and 25 pounds rear. Of course that would hit pretty much minimum cold inflation pressure one could run with that tire size and a near empty truck. If you have access to an accurate weigh scale to do individual front and rear axle weights I would suggest you do that and make sure your topped up with fuel and whatever else in the truck before you weigh it and then you will have a great starting point to work off of and figure out what your bare minimum pressures are you can safely run. If you do much in the way of hot weather high speed driving, bumping up a bit for a safety margin is never a bad idea but just depends on what type of driving you do. I will include the Toyo chart and the floatation series sizes start on page 31. Without a doubt at these pressures I am speculating at minimum wise for your truck, it would most certainly ride very different then it did when you were using 55 lb front and rear.     https://www.toyotires.com/media/pxcjubjs/application_of_load_inflation_tables_20200723.pdf
