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

I clicked thru all 65 pages...mostly aftermarket wheels and trucks with lifts. Lot's of good looking trucks in here.

 

I'm wanting to put a small upsized tire on my 2022 Silverado Custom. My factory equipped Bridgestone tires have 50k on them, and I'm about done with them. They are 275/60R20's

 

I'd like to get something slightly taller, and slightly wider. To fill out the wheel well. But I don't want to have any rubbing.

 

What size should I go with? Thanks in advance.

Tire was rubbing the UCA on the sidewall lugs so I had to install a Rough Country 1/4" wheel spacer

Would you happen to have a picture or two of the rubbing on the control arm? I have the Rough Country 3.5" lift (3.5" strut block and 2.5" rear block) on my diesel and currently have 275/70/18 tires (33"). It currently is .5" or more of space betweem A-arm and tire.  I was thinking on the next replacement that i'd jump to the 34's, but curious if i'd be rubbing too. Was planning on using my stock 18's and not having to use a spacer. I wonder if i went with the Bridgestone at/revo3 that i have now, just in a bigger size, if they would fit? maybe they aren't as wide as the wildpeaks.

Probably would be okay with the Bridgestones.  This pic was before the spacer.  As you can see just barely touching the sidewall lugs.

What is everyone running for speedometer calibration? Rough Country ($260), hypertech, and Pulsar LT ($550) seem like the only options. Dealerships said they can't program for me. Right now I'm holding out for a tuner from RunVSE.

I have a Rough Country for mine. I only ran it for a couple days when I had 275/65/20's on. I'll be putting 35's on once the snow's gone in Michigan and I can get the lift installed. I'll put it back in place then. It's easy to use, you plug it into your computer and input stock tire size and new tire size and save. It then plugs in between one of the BCM plugs and the module tucks behind the drivers side kick panel.

I run the pulsar, put 33s on my RST and it’s almost dead on with satellite speedo. Got it for the other features too, have the AFM shut off and the auto start/stop turned off. Get better mpg now than when I had all that nonsense turned on

Switched tires out to Goodyear UltraTerrain. Best AT tire I've had.

Currently running the trailrunner At and from a price performance standpoint, I'm not sure how they get beat. 

 

Except they are not the most aggressive. Currently leaning towards ko2 but the ultra terrains are intriguing as well.

Off topic but what gear ratio did you set it to?

I didn’t change gears or anything so didn’t change any setting for that portion

I'm considering 295/70R18 Recon Grapplers on my bone stock 19 Trail Boss.  I have read multiple forums and watched a couple YouTube videos that show this setup works on a stock Trail Boss with stock wheels. I have not read of anyone having issues with rubbing or needing to trim anything.  If you have please share!!!  

I have previously been a BFG KO2 fan and have never ran Nitto tires.  I have built a good relationship with a local shop over the past couple years and they highly recommend the Recon Grapplers.  Their local supplier does not stock the BFG KO2.

 

1.  Is the Recon Grappler a good alternative to the KO2?

2.  Is the 295/70R18 too big for my stock TB?

3.  Any big drawbacks in milage, noise, traction, that I need to know about?

      I am sure that was quite the pass experience and not a great place to experience during the winter when the conditions are not good. I've seen video of that pass and also more detailed information and pictures about the wrecks at that one hair pin turn where tractor trailers have flown right off the cliff and I am sure from all the warning signs that you know the exact curve that was !. After all there is a reason why a song was made about Wolf Creek Pass !. By the way and I didn't realize this either when I bought my truck as its nothing I even thought of that would be programmed into the cruise control and this occurs in either the basic or the more advanced cruise that controls your distance behind a vehicle and that is the brakes going down a hill are being applied as soon as the vehicle goes a certain speed over the set cruise speed. While it certainly does force downshifts in the transmission as you found out with cruise on while going down hill, its also dragging the brakes as needed to keep the speed controlled to what the cruise was set to. For me, I find that unsettling simply because I have no concept then as to how MUCH brake input is being used a and just how hot are those brakes getting and the wear factor as well. I can see that system getting a person into trouble on long mountain grades while pulling a trailer as it would not only be standing on the brakes of the pickup without any driver input, it would also be automatically applying the trailer brakes and it could cause a run away unit by overheating the brakes. Its one thing on a shorter hill and if the driver allows it to do its thing but on a long mountain grade is where things could get so out of hand. As someone a while back on this forum said, they had someone following them at night I believe on a down grade and had the cruise set and the person behind them could see the brake lights being energized all the way down the hill. I figured when I saw your comment that you didn't know and would have no way of knowing that your truck was applying the brakes and that you would and rightfully so assume you only used the brakes when you pressed on the pedal to slow down more than the cruise set speed for the slower sharp curves. So its good knowledge to know this about the newer GM trucks, certainly when doing any descending on long mountain grades. In the future try kicking off the cruise and use the the manual mode on a pass to see what that is like as I know myself when I first experienced it I thought no way can this engine be holding me back this well and tried the same hill in manual mode and sure enough the engine was revving way up and still could not hold the trucks speed down like it could in cruise mode.    Fuel mileage, that is where a really low sleek type of car can do better at higher speeds, certainly it starts sucking fuel too but a tall pickup is pushing massive amounts of air and also allowing a lot more air under it and the tow mirrors as in elephant ears pushing through the wind  as well. Driving like grandpa is about as good as one can do when driving one of these if trying to get the best fuel economy they can. I bet these trucks would get the best mileage they can if driven on a freeway in Florida if not busy traffic at a sedate speed and that sea level elevation without hills, vastly different then Colorado !.
