Post your T1 wheel/tire setup


Recommended Posts

NEED INFO!  Today, I took my 2019 GMC AT4 to the shop to have the Readylift 2in SST kit installed with a set of 305/50R20 Nittos on my stock rims.  Shop just called and said only way to run these tires & rims is with a 1/2 to 3/4 inch spacer.  Anyone else with same setup have this issue???

That is certainly a known issue. Your factory wheels don't offer the offset / backspace required to clear your upper control arms. If you decide to run spacers make sure you go with hub centric quality spacers such as those offered by Bora.

Thanks!!!  Any idea on spacer size?  Tech at the shop said 1/2 " to 3/4 ".  Did some internet shopping and most I found were 1" or greater.  I figure better to go with a little bigger in the 1" than not enough.

Your stock wheels likely sit approx. 3/4 inch inside the wheel well, give or take. So if you go with a larger spacer than that, you’ll have some poke. My suggestion would be to go with what the shop recommends.

Looks great! Any rubbing at all?

No rubbing full lock.  I can fit my hand between tires and front liner and 1/2" clearance on rear liner.

2" SST

285/75/18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers

Zero rubbing anywhere surprisingly.

Very little clearance on the upper control arm but it clears. Don't think you could go any wider without different wheels or addition of wheel spacers.
