2019 Silverado 1500 Z71

Stock tires 275/60/20R

I have installed a 2” leveling kit
Looking to stay with the stock 20” rims

Question: What is the largest tire you have ran with this set up and not had any rubbing issues?

Haven’t done it myself but I was just looking at zones website and they list 295/60r20 as max for their 2” level kit.

That’s 2” front level and 2” rear drop on 35/12.5 on factory 20’s. Just barely could hear the scrub on the rear of the fender mud flaps. FYI running 2” wheel spacers so probably more carpet rub without spacers

What was the actual height of the leveling kit installed and was it a top or bottom spacer? I have a old kit from my 2007 Silverado that I swear looks like it will fit (lower spacer) and need to know what steel thickness eqauls 2” of level.

305/55r20 on mine with 2" level up front and 1.5 spacer rear.  If u do a 2" level alone you are likely gonna look squatted.  Be prepared to do the rear too.  I wish I had done a full 2" rear.   

 

The 305s are only about .25" taller than stock.  The extra inch of width is what makes them look cool.  Looks just mean enough without going extreme and losing power and mpg. 

 

These almost hit the UCA but dont.  No other rubbing at all.  I originally thought I probably should get a .25" spacer but so far so good.

That looks great. I only got the 17" wheels with mine but now I know what proportion to shoot for.  Which tires are those? Nitto Ridge?

 

Cheers.

When/if u get 20s and this tire size, keep a positive offset.  Maybe +20.  The stock is +27.  Much less offset and u may rub in turns.

No rubbing at all

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      How many years have I pointed out every point in that link to the folks here and been avalanched with criticisms and outright hostilities at times? I ran counter to even the great CUSTOMBOSS and Lake Speed Jr and the half dozen experts on YouTube and in the final.....GM, Physics (Stribeck) backs that Grumpy old Bear.    Honestly, I never said a thing engineering hadn't studied silly and laid in concrete during WWII. But I'm old, the information is old and yet, the Laws of Physics are eternal.    Okay there is one exception. I vehemently disagree with their use of the word 'tolerances' when what it meant is "clearance".   The clearance is the distance between two objects. The tolerance is the degree of acceptable variation permitted in that clearance. I.E., piston to bore clearance is 0.004" with a tolerance of +/- .0002" so the clearance is in specification if it lies between 0.0038" and 0.0042". Cutting that 'tolerance in half has ZERO impact on lubrication requirements. Makes for more difficulty in manufacturing.  But a tighter clearance 'MAY'. Depends on finish. Anyway....   It's one of those statements made by people to make themselves look smarter than they are to convince people who are as un-enlighten as they seem to manipulate their behaviors. But hey, the blind leading the blind puts them both in the pit.

      Gas Prices

      Out and about yesterday on a long Saturday drive I passed a lot of Shell stations. My preferred, so I pay attention. Lot's of small town Illinois so not six stations in three blocks like the city.    Everyone of them over a radius of say 100 miles had regular at $4.19 but one which was the one closest to home at $4.15. However Premium pricing varied greatly between 85 cents over regular to $1.50 over. I'm not counting the price of the station with the lowest regular so the reference is the same for the remainder and all within the same brand. However the spread discrepancy holds across all brands.     @txab, any thoughts on that?

      Future GMC Jimmy

      What are your thoughts? The Chevy Blazer relaunch was an epic case of 'lunchbag letdown'. Jeep Wranglers and Ford Broncos stick out like a sore thumb.    The AI photos do not look like a 'retro version', but shrunken Tahoes. Get away from the 'futuristic look'. I've seen two concepts. One had rectangular headlight like a Rivian and the other way to big should include dual round headlights like the early version.   If not this would look OK   At least it has GM styling (albeit the K2XX) A lot of the images floating around look like Bronco IIs or the current Bronco. Looking at the Broncos in my area (central Ontario, it seems to be a mix of 2 doors and 4 doors, 'mall rated' to ones that could go offroad.    I'm sure a AT4 and AT4X RPOs could be outfitted similar to a Rubicon if the braintrust understood the whole offroad scene. Crosing my fingers that if it does see the light that the front air dam/bumper doesn't extend below the center line of the tire...

      Silverado 4500-5500-6500 are they still being produced? Would have sold better as GMCs as well

      And overpriced. I was in the Oshawa Truck Plant when they were being built. Very few. I could count on one hand how many I've seen since
