Just put Nitto Grappler G2s on my 2019 Sierra SLT this weekend 285/65/20 on factory rims to replace the original 275/60/20.  Really fills up wheelwell better as it is 1.6 inch more in diameter.  Really like my stance now with the GM Accessories lift (aka Trailboss/AT4 Lift) and Rough Country 2 inch leveling lift. 

 

Do these rub??!. the Nitto website says the G2 in 285/65/20 has a diameter of 34.57 inches. If they don't rub, then this is great news; further bolsters the argument that 35 inch tires will fit. The BFG KO2 is 34.5 inches in diameter.

Very rare rub noted on passenger side fender inside of lower molded flap on sharp right turn only when going up a slight curb or bump. Otherwise no issues

Well, I’ve been trolling several threads here and finally got her done. Took delivery of a Pacific Blue AT4, 6.2L, with 18s, intake/exhaust.

I initially wanted to go with BFG 35/12.5/18 (34.5 inch diameter), knowing they would fit based on what I learned on this website. My concern was the weight (68 pounds), and that they are a tight fit, not leaving much room for flex and bumps.

I then started looking at something slightly smaller. I looked at the Mastercraft and the Cooper AT3 XLT in 295/70/18. All of which range b/w 34.25 and 34.3 inches and weigh 61-63 pounds. All are great tires but less aggressive looking,

Also looked at the Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 285/70/18 which are 34 inches in diameter and weigh 59 pounds. Had the Rdge Grapplers on a prior vehicle and really liked the looks and know for a fact that they are more quiet than the OEM Duratracs. They have a 295/70, but are 69 pounds!

Ultimately went with the Ridge Grappler in 285/70/18. Great looking, fill out the wheel well, light, plenty of clearance, and only 1/2 inch less diameter than the BFGs (that’s only 1/4 inch less in ride height).

Next is tint. Couldn’t be happier

I fit 285/65r20 KO2s on my ‘14 with a 2.25” level but it required some minor metal bending. And the KO2s are known to run a little small

I put some 18” Trail Boss wheels on my Satin Steel AT4...

[AT4x4]

Sweet!  Thinking about putting those same wheels on my black AT4.

[lt1z]

Added some Fuel Nitro in 20x9+1 and Ridge Grapplers in the stock 275/60/20 size. Stock AT4 suspension.

 

 

[AT4x4]

Those Nitros look really good on your truck!

The Trail Boss Goodyear Duratrac AT tires weight 53lbs. I know when you go to a larger heavier tire it can affect ride and mileage.

 

The Mickey Thompson Deegan 38 has a true diameter 33" and 34" tires that are slightly heavier by only a few pounds.

 

Plus Deegan is a local MX rider here in SoCal...support local!!

That a dang good weight for a 34" tire. The cooper MTP tires have a 33 x 11 r18 that weighs 55lbs but for a taller and wider tire 60lbs isnt bad at all.
