Where’d you get the fender badge that excludes the engine size? Is it from an elevation? If you have a part number that would be awesome. Truck looks good, don’t see many lowered ones these days.

You are the man! I’m usually pretty good at searching but for the life of me couldn’t find these for some reason. Thanks again!

What are they guys running aftermarket wheels using for TPM sensors? I want to keep the factory ones in my stock wheels for winter. Are any of the aftermarket sensors working with the 19/20 trucks?

Has anyone recalibrated their speedometers after changing wheel/tire diameter?

I have a 2019 Sierra Elevation.  It was a manager’s demo.  Came with levelling kit and 275/65R20 BFG KO2’s on factory Elevation black 20” Snowflake style wheels.  Tires now have a 65 aspect ratio now vs factory 60.  Obviously with the level and slight diameter change there’s no rubbing or anything.

Also thinking about getting a set of dedicated winter wheels and tires.  Probably go 17” or 18” to save some cash but wondering if that’d screw up my speedo and other components on my truck?

How do you like the Coopers? I'm debating between them and the Nitto Ridge Grapplers.

I love them. Minimal to no road noise, great in wet/snow/mud, even wear and great mileage. I rotate every 5-6k miles. For a load range E tire they aren’t as heavy as others either. I’ve ran Coopers on my last three trucks. The last set had over 25k on them and 12/32, before I traded the truck in.  I think I could have easily got another 20-25k out of them.

I don't do any off road driving other than my 1/4 mile long gravel road. Would you recommend either or both of the tires for that kind of driving? We get snow a few weeks a year at our elevation, sometimes 2 feet worth.

Absolutely, the only time I’m off road is during hunting season. I’m on the highway 75% of the time. I’m in Pittsburgh so we don’t see 2 feet of snow, but never had an issue in 6 inches or so.

Around town I’m getting 14 and 18 on the highway, that’s with the larger, heavier tires and leveling kit. I was seeing 16/20 stock. 
 

I took a three hour trip to Harrisburg and peaked at 28.2.

I'm still on my first tank, and looks like I'll get 525 miles on it.  Truck's computer shows best of 28mpg.  I'll calculate it once I get a fill up.

Can you post more pictures of the front. Id like to see the front stance. Trying to get a similar setup but ive seen other trucks that dont look this good with the same rims.

Are those the satin or glossy finish? I was on the fence between fuels or these and your specs just made up my mind. 

Glossy black ? Please give me aside shot if you would.

    • More is cylinder deactivation. Kia-Hyundai Ive had 4. The warranty is the same 10 years 100K miles. My grandson drives the first one 05 Elantra GT. My wife drives the second one 2011 Genesis. The Genesis still performs as new and looks great. The Elantra looks rough. He’s not kind to it. The third was a Genesis coup. The fourth was a Santa Fe. Those were my daily drivers. I don’t keep them long. Kia is the same as Hyundai with the same warranty. I looked at the K-4 today. Too small, otherwise pretty good buy. Most of Hyundai and Kia’s have a performance upgrade. 
    • Thanks for the point of reference 
    • Great question. Answer....depends. One the volume of the crankcase, the driver that will actually be using the vehicle and the amount it uses plus the distance expected for that next trip. Couple of for instances:   Wife is going to drive Dizzy to Moline and back plus a bit around town so say 500 miles on the day. I know from years with that SUV that around town and local rural it uses about a quart in 1250 miles. But on the Interstate and her at the wheel without her anchor nagging her she'll push it and it will drop a quart in about 800 miles. Hence, around town I wait to somewhere between a quarter down to a quart down. On her trip I'd top it if it was down a few ounces and hope for the best.    Have I overfilled one? You mean by adding before it needs a full quart I assume. No, not once after finding the true fill mark.  I know the dipsticks of everything I drive and add what it needs. I learn this by doing the first oil change a quart low. Run the motor for a few minutes. Let it sit over night. Check and mark. Then add half a cup at a time making note of the place on the stick. I add through the dipstick tube with a barbeque basting bottle. Give it a few minutes to drain down and check again.    A vehicle like Dizzy that uses this much oil will take a few quarts between 3K changes. I keep one in the vehicle with the bottle and a bag. (Mindful of it's fullness) Not a big deal and never makes a mess of it. There is no such thing as "multiple quarts' in my shop for any specific oil. There will be a maximum however of the number of different oils used over the fleet.     Dizzy holds a nominal 5 quarts. So the first fill was indeed over as it actually took 4.75. My vehicles are fit with Valvomax valves so I can meter an ounce on the drain if need be. Found her mark first crack at it. Never to be repeated.    Pepper uses none between changes so I don't keep a quart in that one. Straight up 6 quarts put her dead on the full line. Check it ever fuel stop. They will surprise you when they start using.    Raven holds 3 liters or 5.44 ounces over three quarts. I add 3 quarts and 6 ounces. That gives me 5 oil changes on my orphan quart.    Lawnmower holds about 3/5 of a quart. I don't over fill it to prevent an orphan. So yea, depends. 
    • 185k on original 6.2L engine and 10 speed. 6" lift with 35" tires. Changed oil (Mobil 1 synthetic) when truck told me to. Original tranny with original fluid and no service or flush done. All highway miles. A/C compressor replaced at 155k. Oil cooler line replaced at 180k. Still daily driver. Love this truck.   This is my 3rd 6.2L vehicle (2008 Yukon Denali / 2018 Cadillac Escalade) with over 150k miles and no issues. Denali had broken motor mount at 100k.
