Tried to install the winter wheels from my 2018 Silverado 1500 on to my new truck, a 2019 Silverado Custom, and my winter wheels won't clear the 4 piston caliper on the new truck, the winter wheels are factory 2014 Silverado that I mounted some winter tires on, anyone else encounter this?

I was told the same thing, my 2010 winter wheels would not fit my 19 TB.
I opted to purchase the 17inch wheels from the WT model for the winter months.

You can probably use spacers?

Yes, been discussed many times around here, some will fit but most will not fit. You can run a spacer to clear the caliper or sell the 14 wheels and buy some wheels that fit the 19.

It's not about rubbing, the last gen "Wheels" wont fit as they hit the caliper, has nothing to do with tire rub.

My bad, I'll edit that..... I am using the rims off my 2014 All Terrain (with the 1.5" spacer) and they fit fine........ Except for tire rub LOL

After reading this I switched mine this morning.  I had OEM 20" rims from my 2018 1500.  Installed on my 2019.  Front calipers are very close but do not touch.

I have 17" rims that came off my 18' Kodiak edition and wondering if they would fit my 2021 elevation that has 20's. If they rub the caliper what size spacer do i need to clear them?

Did you find out the answer to this ? Thanks 

The answer to what? Most all OEM wheels from 2018 or older won't fit on a 19 or newer without a spacer because of the larger brake calibers on the newer trucks. The new OEM wheels will fit on the older trucks no problem.

I was trying to quote this post. New here didn’t know how, figured it out now. Was trying to ask what size spacer is needed to use the older rims. I’m trying to use these rims. So I’m wondering what size spacer I need for these to sit flush against the rim and clear the callipers. These rims don’t have to cut like my factory rims to allow the studs to stick out of the spacer a bit kinda thing.

      Whoever greenlighted the work truck matte black front bumpers on every trim but the AT4X should be fired!  I was hoping that was an AI mistake, but just realized they were on every model of the 2027 Silverado too.     Some parts of the interior do look premium, but the Denali Ultimate dashboard looks like an afterthought.  At least they appear to have lost the microfiber the high end Silverado models showed, but the '27 High Country dash looks better than the Denali.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      New member here. I am researching a read-first event-recorder concept for late-model GM V8 trucks. This is not a sales post. There is no product link, price, preorder, or mailing list. I am trying to determine whether the underlying problem is real before building anything.   Has your truck ever had a brief problem such as: - rough running or a momentary misfire - an oil-pressure warning or unusual pressure event - reduced power or a brief stall - a U-code or lost-communication problem - a symptom that disappeared before the dealer or independent shop could reproduce it   If so, I would appreciate the following details: - year, model, engine, and mileage - what happened and under what conditions - whether a DTC and useful freeze-frame data were stored - whether the shop was able to reproduce it - what the eventual confirmed repair was, if known - what additional information would have helped the diagnosis   The concept being evaluated is a removable leave-in recorder that continuously retains a rolling window from before and after an event. It would not tune, reflash, clear codes, or change the vehicle calibration.   I am also not claiming that it could predict lifter failure or see every internal ECM variable.   The real question is whether continuous event history would add enough useful evidence beyond freeze frame, GDS2, and existing scan tools — or whether it would simply be another unnecessary gadget.   For owners and technicians, which problem would make something like this genuinely useful: 1. intermittent misfire or AFM/DFM-related behavior 2. oil-pressure events 3. lost communication or electrical faults 4. none of the above Please be blunt. Negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.

      No tears over the SLE and SLT trim levels disappearing but I kind of loathe the "Elevation" name. It's a truck--skip the elegance.   The slab-dashboard design is decidedly different. Almost has a Hummer flavor to it. "Professional Grade" seems to be leaning very white-collar, tech-driven these days moreso than blue-collar, functional design.   The Silverado would be my choice between the two new trucks. Pleased with the engine lineup in both. The GMC is a little "too much" for a truck, IMO, and the Denali borders on ridiculous - but I do know there are buyers for luxury trucks out there. It's just not my speed.

      - I like the outside but not as much as the Chevrolet.  They ICE'd the EV styling and it works, but I think exterior goes to Chevy on this one.     - SLE and SLT dead = Not.  Surprising.  Fits into the rest of the GMC lineup like this which (aside from Pro) matches the rest of the family.  Elevation, AT4, Denali.     - Interior.  Sophisticated Malaise era.  Why do I say Malaise?  Drawn with a ruler.  Rectangles everywhere.  Looks very premium though.
