Post some pics! I'm on the same boat as you were before you upgraded your tires. Thanks! 

Here's a couple pics. Been very snowy here lately so truck looks like crap. No rub but close.20200104_140512.thumb.jpg.5e40d9a4a7d246107d21b0d719e114b8.jpg20200104_134522.thumb.jpg.d6d74f7e69befc4d96c366a8e4d13759.jpg

Like the look! How close are you to rubbing? I'm ordering 305 45 22. Same size as stock but wider

Look's great! Leveled? 2 inch ?

Any rub at full lock in reverse or driving into a driveway?

Would it be possible to get close up pic's from the back of the fender at full turn?

thank you,

I havent bought my tires yet. Still debating on the 305/45 and the 285/50 and 33x12.5

Still dont know if I want to keep the stock wheels or change out to something else with slightly less offset to get the tires flush with the body.

So many options and I dont want it to rub either haha.

And still debating on a 4"bds lift or 2" level.

Yes 

I ordered my truck with the brembo upgrade option front and rear. 
and I love them. 
They do have the sensors on them the info on the dash gives me the percentage of wear 

front 80% 

rear.  80%

They drive nice. I keep them at 40lbs pressure so I didn't notice any difference with the ride. The biggest change is how much better they are than the stock crap in the snow and ice. We've had quite a bit of snow and a few bad storms and haven't had any trouble getting around. They are a little bit noisier but the only time I really notice it is if I'm on smooth concrete and radio is off or very low. It doesn't bother me at all but as this truck is still the quietest I have ever owned. 

I have used BFG KOs on my last 3 trucks and love that tire so will be interesting to see how I like these after a year or 2.

Those are E rated LT tires vs P,  62 lbs vs 41lbs stock. How was the ride impacted? What psi are you using? Any drop in mpg? How is the stability at highway speeds? I am loving the idea but afraid of the consequences.

I love to hear about this too...

I too ordered my truck with the brembo, however I have no sensors in the front. Saw your post and went straight to the dealer, they told me the sensors don't fit with the brembo . Who is your dealer?

Koons Tyson’s gmc Chevrotet Buick 

In Vienna Virginia. 
the service advisors are not the greatest they have a god complex, however their techs are good and they put the sensors on. And work as intended. 
I can try to see if I can find out if a different part number for the sensors were used.

Can anyone confirm if 305/45/22 fit on stock suspension? Looking to fit them on 22x9 oe replicas with +28 offset. I have a 21 sierra elevation. 

 

Thanks!

Good point. This is something that is often overlooked in the hunt for a better look/stance. Moving to an LT is fine if you plan on doing the heavy work/hauling/off-roading but if just for aesthetics, I think it makes sense to stay in the P rating (Passenger) for performance. Adding a 50% heavier and harder tire will affect mpg and ride. Nitto does offer a 305/45r22 that stays in the P rating and is only about 3-4 lbs heavier than stock. I have seen on other posts that the 305/45 will fit on stock gm rims.

    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
    • My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.    
    • I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w
    • I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
