I'm on that size tire but have the 2" SST. Very minor rubbing when turned going over a bump. Normal conditions, nothing.

 

 

What wheel offset?

No good ones but here you go.

 

285/75/18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers

Stock 18s

No wheel spacers

Zero Trimming.

Zero way to go any wider of a tire without hitting the Ready lift UCAs unless wheel spacers are added, which will probably cause more rubbing issues.

Only rubbing as mentioned above (Slight rub going over a bump at full lock)

 

Truck has a 1 to 1.25" rake with the 2" SST.

Here is my 2019 with same Ready Lift SST kit.  Also some photos of clearance of stock 275/75/18's on  on Method NV's which are a 12mm offset versus 26mm for stock.  So 285's would be very tight with RL UCA - but there is more room with stock UCA's

For reference, here is my tire clearance with the RL UCA (Tire specs in above post). 

Note that the outter lugs on the tire are not offset in the image so clearance is less than shown.

I've articulated the suspension pretty well to check for rubbing and haven't caught any marks yet but it is certainly close.

I'm convinced on this size tire, it will 100% come down to actual tire selection and not all 285/75/18's will fit without wheel spacers.

Anyone successfully put 285/75r18 tires on a stock AT4? I am looking at this size in the Falken Wildpeak AT3/W, they measure out to 34.8” tall and 11.2” wide. 

They'll fit fine as long as you only drive in a straight line.  You WILL HAVE rub with the inboard front fender liner and "probably" in the rear of the fronts at the mud flap and/or liner.  I just installed 285/75/18 on OEM wheels on my AT4 with the Rough Country 1318 - 2" leveling kit and they just clear at full lock and no articulation.  I imagine if the suspension is heavily loaded while off-roading and near full lock I will rub the fender liner on the inboard side in the front.  It's really close without any articulation.  Tires I installed are the Toyo Open Country AT3 in 285/75/18 which are 34.8" x 11.3".  If I do rub it will be minimal and I can get a little more room if I zip tie the liner back as many have done.  Anything wider than 11.3" would cause me problems.

Has anyone run 295/60-20 tires on a 20x9 wheel with near zero offset and a leveling kit?  Ive seen other AT4s running this tire on a stock wheel with 26 offset, but not sure if the ~1" shift in wheel position would cause rubbing.  I'm also concerned with the difference between no rubbing on the pavement and no rubbing while light off-roading.  I could go with the 285/60-20 and be fairly comfortable, but I wanted the 295.  If i go 295/55-20, im not gaining much in diameter and it sort of seems like im not using my money wisely.  Why cant there be a 295/57.5-20?

    • Did you ever get this worked out? Mike is doing the two start thing now too. This is after a new camera back in December. 
    • I’m doing an experiment on a vehicle I don’t have much money in. I’m going by the premise that after they last 100K miles they were no mechanical problems with assembly. Or defects with the parts. With oil changes by the minder for the first 127K miles when I acquired it. I quickly went through low mileage oil changes then settled on 5k oil changes with close to 170K miles on the vehicle currently. I did have the option to turn off the cylinder deactivation. I didn’t on this vehicle because it’s in ECONOMY mode at least half the time. It should be a no brainer frequent oil changes are the key. The manufacturer gets away with the long oil changes with its severe service  maintenance. Just ask them what is normal. 
    • Even set to "recirculated", the air pushes out and is hot. I have noticed that sometime it doesn't want to switch between recirculated/vented air. Say it is set to Circulated Air and I want to switch to Vented, when I click the Vented button, it just quickly lights up/clicks and immediatly switches back to Circulated. It's done this a few times now. So maybe it is an actuator getting stuck? But then, that doesn't explain the hot air when everything is off does it?
    • I wonder what the price is out at the coast, Big Sur or other out of the way locations as I bet they are charging quite a premium over the in land pumps. 
    • Were you looking at the HD trucks on the GM website or the half tons as that makes all the difference. As far as I know there are only two options for the HD trucks and that is the standard 2 speed transfer case or the 2 speed transfer case that has the added 4 high auto feature and they put that transfer case by default into the LTZ and High Country although its optional in the LT and not sure if its available in the work trucks.    The half tons, that is where its been a total mess in my estimation for a few years now with most trucks below the top trim having the single speed transfer case as standard but with the option of having the two speed such as one would get by choosing the Z71 package, however then not being able to get the two speed transfer case with the towing package unless it was a higher trim truck AND had the 6.2 gas so one could combine the towing package gearing diffs with the two speed transfer case. Having said that if its a trail boss package then it gets the two speed transfer case but not necessarily able to get the tow package as it would depend on trim level and engine chosen. Believe me, people have bought the GM half tons assuming "of course it will have a two speed transfer case" only to find out after when they really pay attention to what they now own .... crap, there is NO low range !.    I don't believe Ford or Ram have gone that way yet with their half tons but like I say its been a few years now that GM has done this with the half tons.
