Rear of truck seems to want to spin around

[larmo]

I have a 2018 Silverado 1500 double cab LT Midnight ED and on slippery roads the rear seems to want to slide out as if to make the truck go sideways .

this is my 8th Silverado and i have never felt this before i have added 300lbs of weight after it happened the first time and it made no difference (tires are in great shape and no warning lights are on )  i had a 2015 version of this truck with out ever feeling this and a 2017 Colorado that i never had this happen.

 

thank you

Well, since you are not new to pickups, I’m not really sure what to tell you, other than that perhaps the tires you are using are simply not able to offer the performance that you are used to.

Change out the Goodyears to some michelins

Would your tires happen to those junk Goodyear SR-A's?

Even though I had 3/4 tread life left, I had to get those crappy things off my truck. In the rain more than once my back end would get squirrelly.

 

As Jacob posted, I opted for Michelin's. I got the 275/70/R18 Defender LTX. What an awesome tire!

I just got the Continental Terrain Contact A/T's.  They are an awesome tire!

I have the same problem with a 2016.
I was also told tires.

Seems that some companies never change.  I had a set of Goodyear Eagle GTs that would get the car sideways at 55 mph if you whomped on the gas.  Changed them out to BFGs and all was well.

What tires and psi?

Replace the factory Ranchos with some Bilstein 4600 or 5100's for a more "planted" feel.

Wranger Duratrac psi is 35  and it sees like everyone for the most part is saying tires , i guess even though it is that same as my 2015 was something must be just a little off.

 

THANK YOU EVERYONE!!
