Here she is, Ride is better in my opinion and I’m pretty sure it’s only due to new rear shocks.

Dude, looks awesome! This is the way these trucks should come from the factory. 

SO much better.

 

tires are really gonna make it look like a TRUCK. Congrats on the new ride too, btw!

Thanks. Even my salesman said it looks like it should have from the factory, well, besides the tires.

Definitely. Looks better as far as stance, but I will agree about the tire issue. Need more sidewall.

I agree, I was looking again last night, anything at a 33,34,35" tire in 22" only comes in a load range E, I'll have more sidewall but have a worse ride, not too sure how I feel about that. Only real option is to go to 20" wheels then the options are endless.

Finding the right height taller AT tire that won't rub in a 22" may be a dilemma.

There are a few options I’ve seen guys running in 35x12.50 that would fit. And there are a few 285/55 options that may fit better (no rub). But your right. Seems like all of them are E

The problem is that on the OEM wheel I cant run wider than my current 11.93 wide tires because I can't even get my finger between the tire and the upper control arm, it's so close it's not even funny.

Well I can confirm that the 285/55R22  Nitto Terra Grappler G2's fit with no rubbing with the Rough Country 3" lift. I'll post pictures once I clean it up but it looks a lot better now with the larger tire.

How's the ride with that lift? Any big change from stock? 

In my opinion it rides better than stock, the only reason could be the better shocks in the rear, otherwise it’s all stock suspension. It has a little more body roll but that’s to be expected. I’m very happy and I have 1” of clearance to get in to my garage so life is good.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.

      Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍

      Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
