Would the 2” motofab level clear the tire from  the control arm that he was hitting?

Can’t tell if you’re saying you have the 2” level in the front along with the 2” factory lift or not

Full photo of the truck with 325/65/18 on OEM rim, 1/4 spacers & 2” factory lift

You were able to fit them without any rubbing or trimming after the 1/4” spacers were on? After installing them, do you think a less knobby sidewall tire could fit without wheel spacers on the factory rim? And also, are the tires flush with the fenders or do they poke out a little? Pic?

Curious what did this do to your MPGS when you put them on?

If I'm cruising at 60mph DIC says 19mpg, 17mpg average city/highway after a couple weeks of driving. I've never calculated it. I'm happy with the mileage.

Truck came with 2” lift from factory. I didn’t modified suspension at all.

Yes, I was able to fit them after installing the spacers. If the  sidewalls weren’t knobby I could get away without wheel spacers and they tires are flush.

 

Old tires were donuts for sure lol

Your setup is perfect brother. Compliments to the stance and those running boards as well!

Interesting.  I'm not sure why someone would spend the coin to install taller tires for improved ground clearance on your 4 wheel drive only to then lose all you've gained and then some by installing handicapped steps that hang 8" below the rockers!?!?!?  Seems like an exercise in futility???

Calm down boss, 90% of the people on here are installing bigger tires for aesthetic purposes, not off-roading. They fill out the wheel wells better. Didn't realize we were upsetting a consummate professional off roader. Guess its a good thing its not your truck.

I don’t understand why steps hang down so low either. I don’t offroad near as much as I used to any more but clearance beneath the steps concerns me. However I also fail to see the point in that comment. 

 

It’s someone else’s vehicle. Let them do with it what they wish.

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
