For all you AT4 owners, did you pick 18's or 20's and why. There is only one AT4 on the lots where I live and it has the 20in wheels. I haven't been able to see one in person with 18s. I'm planning on buying out of state and was hoping I'd see/drive both before I travel.

I wanted an AT4 fully loaded, so the only option were 20's.   My dealership was great to work with, and they fully credited me the MSRP on the 20" wheels and tires, and got me some Fuel whee

I went with 20” wheels and swapped the stock Bridgestone AT for a Nitto Ridge Grappler. To me this is the best combo for a 70/30 mix of on/off road.

I am not an AT4 owner but I would opt for the 18" wheels with DuraTrac tires.

After all this is an "Off Road" package right?

The 20" wheel and less aggressive P type or All Terrain tire just looks funny on such a best, IMHO.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

When I bought my AT4, there were several of both on the lot. The 18s looked better to me so that's what I went with. Not that the 20s were bad. Just not as aggressive on a truck designed like the AT4.

I'm leaning 18's. Would like to see them before in person though. Some of the pics/video angles they look a bit undersized for the vehicle. How are the duratracs for road noise?

I'm not a fan of the rims at all. But I think the 20s are super ugly. I got the eighteens with the standard tire as I plan on pulling them off the vehicle when the weather breaks in 2 months. Why spend a lot of money on something that I don't like and I can buy a cheaper myself.

I agree on the 20” TB wheels. The stock AT4 20s look out of place with street treads but I’ve seen some with mud terrains swapped and they look good. I’d opt for 18s with duratracs myself though.

What size tire? I want to get some nittos but worried about side lugs and going bigger. My goal would be 35sx 11.5 x20 but I will settle for 34x11.5.

I don't have an AT4 but I have a Trail Boss and I totally think the tires are undersized for the truck.  I swapped mine out the 2nd week I got it.  I actually like the stock 20s better on the AT4 than the 18s but not the tires they come with.

Stock size 33”. Wasn’t interested in going bigger on the stock wheel , just wanted a more aggressive tire then the Bridgestone RHS it came with.

My wifes Tahoe RST has virtually the same wheels as the 20 inch AT4 but in a 22 inch wheel. She gets compliments on them all of the time and I really like them. Ironically I do not like them on the AT4 and would definitely go with the 18s...

 

I find it super lazy that GMC just raided Chevy's parts bin on a 60k+ truck. They basically called up the wheel manufacturer and told them to make the same wheel with a different center cap in a 20 inch wheel.

Road noise isn't too bad. I dont notice it at highway speeds but its there in town around 30-35. Not unbearable though. I've gotten used to it

      Installed Bilstein 5100's on my 2024 2500HD - Worth it - VIDEO + GIVEAWAY Inside

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Thought I would add to what Bruce answered, not only do the HD models use the torsion bar system, there are I believe 5 different torsion bar spring ratings that are all physically interchangeable with all the HD trucks going from a two wheel drive 2500 all the way up to the duramax or a gas engine truck with a snow plow prep package front end weight capacity that use the maximum sized torsion bar. It starts from a 4400 lb rated set in 400 lb increments up to 6000 lb. If one wants to fine tune the ride for a certain truck application they can swap out the torsion bars.

      OIL CONSUMPTION

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      First off pay close attention to what Newdude pasted as he is a GM tech !.    I have a couple of questions which might cross off some questions others on this forum would be wondering about as well. So when was the engine oil changed prior to this trip, was it almost brand new oil or did it already have a fair bit of use on it before you started the trip.   Did you check the oil level on flat ground and was it at the full mark just before leaving on this trip which I gather from google map is about 700 miles or so. Why I ask and this is not the first time in history that has happened, that either a dealer or some other shop changed the oil on the vehicle and the vehicle left the shop and the owner ( you ) assumed the engine oil was full but in reality the person who changed the oil simply did not put enough oil into the engine .. it happens !. Also that a shop put the wrong viscosity oil in and an engine was not happy with that thinner viscosity and oil got past the rings at a higher rate than the proper viscosity. Not to mention if there was any leaking out of a drain plug or the filter gasket etc.

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      You could, although in the end it really doesn't make much difference what comes out in exact terms since it comes down to putting enough back in so that there is enough volume so that something flows back out once the trans is up to temp for the check procedure. I presume your putting a pan on that has a drain plug but its probably the same pan mold/size as at least a while back no extra volume pan was made for the gas truck version due to the exhaust cross over pipe issue. All I can say as per volume I put back in and this was based on changing out the filter as some is trapped in it that does not come out until its removed because of the way its made inside and my truck had sat over night with the trans having been hot when shut down and dripping internally before I pulled the pan. I went off of what the trans shop suggested as a minimum volume he found worked which was 9 1/2 quarts and I had enough flow out of the stand pipe that I knew I was right on the money once it slowed to a dribble and never wasted hardly any oil but it would be totally fine to throw in a full 10 quarts too. I guess personally I wouldn't ruin a perfectly good pan by drilling a hole in it, not with the cost of replacement pans up here or the dorman one anyway with the drain was 500.00 when I priced one out a while back, totally stupid.    I might not have said before but this trans oil type really expands with heat and I think its been said on this forum and the trans shop said the same so I wanted to try and hit the lower temp of the range vs at the top or go shooting above it as that would allow more oil to flow out which wouldn't be ideal.

      Since I am going to be replacing the pan, I am just going to drill a hole in the original to drain it so I will be able to catch the fluid easier and measure how much I took out.
