Yes spacers were essential as it does rub without. No vibrations noted however..rides great. Studs plenty long. Was a little bothered by having to run spacers but got such a good price on wheels i got over it. BTW I think I saw where EBay had same price listed for what I got for...$790 to my door. Also read somewhere where an installer grounded calipers down ALOT after buying and researching/disecting an oem caliper and had no ill effects. Forgot where I read this. Hope this helps.

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

Looks awesome.  I have the same truck and am looking at the exact same lift & tires but I fear the truck wont fit in my garage with the new setup.  Any chance you could measure and let me know the height from ground to highest point on your truck?  Would seriously help me decide.  Also, any rubbing or trimming needed?  Thanks!

Looks good. I just got my at4 and won't be changing the tires/wheels probably for a few months. I'm curious as to how these have held up? Any updated pics?

Thank you!  This is the EXACT info I'm looking for.  I want a different rim but these specs. Are you happy with the sst kit? Any trimming or rub?

Did it sacrifice any ride quality?  Lastly did this mess with your mpg's?  

Once I read about the at4's and auto 4wd issues as well as added stress on truck I got nervous.  Lots of misinformation out there.  

Tia!

Rides fantastic. No rubbing. No trimming. These should last another 75k miles until an upgrade to a 4”.

I’m very happy with this kit. I would certainly recommend it, including the new UCA’s. Ride quality has not been compromised at all - my wife could not tell the difference and she typically prefers a smooth ride. This is very smooth, just like OEM.

No trimming. Very, very minor rub in the front wheel wells at full turn. But it is so slight that I have not needed to do anything to correct it. I am about 1,000 miles in on these tires and it all but stopped with that minimal of tire wear.

I ran this kit with the stock wheels and it had zero impact on gas mileage. When I went to the larger and heavier 305/55/20 setup, I lost about 1-1.25 mpg. Small sacrifice for this setup IMO.

So far, I have not experienced any auto 4wd issues, but I only used that setting 2x after I installed the SST.

I installed the SST myself, on my garage floor. It took about 5 hours, mainly because the time it took me to compress the struts.

Hope that helps!

Thanks!  Definitely helped. I have been all over the net looking for straight answers regarding this set up. Sounds exactly like what I need to do. Do you know your backspacing?

I know the offset went from +27 stock to 0 with my Moto Metal wheels. But I don’t have the backspacing off hand.

Hey Ryan,

 

A 20x10 with a +0 offset will be a 5.5" back spacing. If you're looking for that specific set up PM me and I'll send you a link with options.

yea from what I've read the negative offsets is when you run into more issues.

Where did you buy the 2" lift blocks from?

I bought them from Rough Country as well. The were a little hard to find on their site, but they are tapered part # 6592 and do a good job. You’ll have to buy the new u bolts. I already had some from a previous truck, so they worked. I also bought the aluminum level kit part # 1313.

Got the rims a week ago and had intentions to run the stock tires for a bit. Couldn't handle the stock tires and pulled the trigger today on some Duratracs.

Stock size at 275/60/20. Crazy...but they rub a little bit on passenger side full lock in reverse. 

 

Rims are Fuel Rebel 20x9 +1 offset.

      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

      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.
