So what's the tire size now?  And what leveling kit did u do?  I'm looking at the ready lift sst with those wheels n specs with a 305/55r20

 

Stock tire size at 275/60/20. I wanted to keep the tires light to maintain the smooth ride and didn't need the extra load rating. I'm leveled on a Readylift 2 inch bottom strut spacer.

 

I had 305/55/20's on my 15 Sierra All Terrain. Loved the look of that size!

I know the K2 guys have one of these threads so I figured we should too. Think it’d be useful for others. Post pics of your setup! Make sure to add specs of the wheels/tires, spacers, suspension, rubb

That's what I had before as well. A 15' elevation edition. Looked great. 

I know what you mean about not wanting to sacrifice the stock smooth ride.  I'm tempted to do the same and use some all terrains for a slightly more aggressive look and maybe a small spacer to give a better stance.  

Which tire are u running?

Honestly, the stock Elevation 20 inch black wheels are really nice. Originally, I was going to just get 1.5 inch wheel spacers and run an all terrain tire with the stock wheels. However, I do a lot of driving with both kids in hockey and the winters are pretty harsh here. So for piece of mind I opted to get the new wheels to avoid spacers.

 

Right now I'm running with Duratracs. Had them on my last 3 trucks and they are hard to beat in the snow...i was hoping to get something less aggressive looking this time around but I couldn't pass up on the sale that they were on.

WOW impressive. its not my style but it looks good, are you going to slam it? 

Thanks! Not slamming it, but going to level it, drop the rear even with the front. I was told it will rub if I lower the front

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page

      Some Assembly is Required

      Common Sense Assembly   Your driveline is forgiving of the occasional mistake. It will even often forgive the random serious blunder. But it will not forgive a continuous bad habit.      What? Not everything needs to be a five thousand word essay.

      Gas Prices

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      We drove about 15 minute east today to visit a friend and saw a steep increase in price in the same county. About 50 cents a gallon steepper.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Sure about that? A degree wheel and a dial indicator would lower your degree of assurance in that statement. 😉    It why we have offset keys and dialable timing sprockets. Just say'n.... I've built a few and have never seen one "On the money".

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I will admit I haven't experimented much with pressure drops beyond the numbers I put in and part of that is that the numbers I used are fairly low and then found out it would trigger regardless at that 35 psi. Having said that I had tried before had changed the placard pressures and being that I have a 1 ton set to 80 on the placard for the rear I believe it triggered close to 60, the front I don't recall now for sure but thought maybe it could get close to 45 from that factory 60 placard pressure. So I never did figure out if it was a number of psi from placard pressure to the alarm or a percentage of the total placard number as some figured it was like a 25% drop from placard pressure would trigger it. So as to try and answer your question, I believe I set the placard pressure on the front to 47 or so and while I run the front tires at 40, they have dipped below that some if its colder and I haven't put "winter air" in yet and never once have had the front alarm go off. I would say that the answer your looking for is no, that if you set your placard pressure to 45, you have a certain amount of room to drop below that pressure before the alarm will go off.    The pressures you decide to run in your truck, that ends up being what makes sense to you based on what your carrying in your truck or if towing, then have to bump them back up to something that will carry the load in the rear and the fronts typically left at the same pressure. It all comes down to that chart I put the link to and using an accurate roadside scale to be your guide, both unloaded and then loaded to know your minimum safe pressures.    I just wish GM would allow a person to change the readings for the tire pressures to the English system of pounds as I have to look at that goofy metric reading that will never ever jive in my head and will go over and change it just to figure out what they are if need be and then change it back.
