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?

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By Z45 · Posted

      Having owned 4wd vehicle since the 1970s I find there are varying opinions on how to use 4wd, every owner is an expert in their minds.  IMO, 4LO is the appropriate gear and what I would use,  You have to feather the gas to avoid spinning tires and the lower the gear the better chance.  But like I said you will find those that think their method is best.  I live near a boat launch.  Yesterday there was a new Ford Maverick pulling out a pontoon boat almost 2x its size, they had no problems and they don't have a LO range.   True story. One winter day not long ago I was coming out of small town post office and there was a F150 4wd parked in front and was stuck foot deep snow ruts. I knew the lady so I asked her to put it in 4wd (wondering why in the middle of a 2-day snow storm she wasn't).  Her reply surprised me, "my husband" (the expert) told me not use that because it uses more gas. She finally got unstuck spinning in 2wd which likely used more gas than not.

      Your tire pressure issue may just be batteries, you can reset them using tge Ing switch (I think) and the owner's  manual. ChatGTP will b e a faster, better help than Google.

      The thinking is that starting out in a higher gear makes it easier to avoid applying excessive torque when pressing the gas pedal. In a modern 4wd truck with 4 low and a limited slip or locking rear end, I would use 4 low and try to crawl up the ramp. Sometimes if they are too slippery, you have to back up to let the boat have some bouyancy, and then accelerate briskly to get some momentum to help you pull the through the slippery parts.

      I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.

      Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.
