Just installed a Kryptonite Stage 3 Levelling kit on my '21 AT4 HD and I am debating between tire sizes to run on the stock wheels.  
 
Main considerations for me are;
- no rubbing on frame or control arm at full lock or during suspension articulation while driving off road.
- ideally no wheel spacers to make it work
-  trimming or tying back liners is no issue but id rather not start hacking things up beyond that.
 
Tire sizes I'm looking at
35x12.5R20 - which clearly fit no problem as per the above post.  Very similar to stock size (except wider) which looks a bit on the small side with the levelling kit (IMO).
325/60R20 - has anyone that's run this size on stock wheels that can comment on fitment?  This seems like the best size IMO, also comes in factory load & speed rating which is nice.
37x12.5x20 - Sounds like these work with no cutting just wheel spacer and some trimming?  
 
Any & All comments are welcomed.  Looking at the Toyo AT3 as my favourite.  Unfortunately they're hard to find in Canada right now, especially in the 325/60R20 size.


With the 35x12.5 you won’t have any issues other than the kryptonite control arm. The wider tires will rub on them with your stock rim offset. 11.5 wide tires will work. If you want to keep the rims, you will need spacers with 12.5 wide.

Not the best pic, but this was right after she was done, and I was dropping the old tires off at the old mans for him to give to a friend..NO rubbing, NO cutting/bending anything..

Now I’m confused!  One says zero rubbing with 35x12.5 on stock wheels with the kryptonite stage 3 and the other saying it will rub for sure.  ??‍♂️

I believe the other guy has after market wheels with high offset. This truck, the white one in the pic has the Kryptonite stage 3 with Fox 2.0 and stock Denali wheels. I have 0 rub..

This was rubbing with stock rims. Maybe it’s the tire selection because they rubbed with Maxis MT 35x12.5. Had to get new rims.

If it's not too much hassle, I'd be curious to see your clearance with that setup - this is what my truck currently looks like with factory wheels and stock 275/65R20 tires.. I'd say max 3/4" clearance before UCA is rubbing on the tire with the wheels pointed straight ahead.

I took a pic to show you the clearance, I didn't measure but it's not allowing me to upload it for some reason. But from my pic its really not all that much closer.

I’m sorry but I think you will rub if you bump up to 12.5 width. You have 3/4” clearance now. Stock tires are 10.5” wide if I remember correctly? So adding 1” to each side will certainly make them rub.

I’ve been running the Kryptonite Stage 3 kit for a while now with 35x12.5x20 on 20x9 with a +10 offset with no rubbing issues at all, just enough tire poke to give it a more aggressive look that it needed! 3a7d03ac2becffde0d41333748b0d142.jpg280ef74c8335a15a9348dc9a51350cc9.jpg

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      Thanks for all the help so far!   I did try right from 2026 right down to 2021, and only from 2023 down lets me select the option for tire psi change, but I get the vehicle not supported error!   I'll definitely try it under Chevrolet after work today, and I'll get the sensor number from gm for my truck tire sensors. And I'll let you know if it works for me under Chevrolet!   And if that doesn't work, I'm going to guess that what @Atlas said about maybe I have a different body control module could be true!

      2010 Avalanche 5.3 not running correctly after engine swap.

      From where I'm sitting this sounds like a compatibility problem. I'm assuming the 2007 was a 900-series truck, and not an 800-series (they were sold side-by-side in dealerships that model year), since it starts and runs.   This is why I HATE post-2006 vehicles. Everything becomes a huge problem when you try to keep the thing running for longer than the manufacturer has designed it to.    I can't remember when Global-A architecture started - either '10 or '11. For your sake, you had better hope it's '11, or you're going to be spending some BIG money to correct this cluster-eff. That's something you need to find out before doing anything else. You may have several computers bricked ... but the fact that it runs tells me you MIGHT be ok here.     EDIT: Just did a quick refresher. You're screwed. This is Global-A. The 2 systems are NOT compatible in the slightest. Once you get the correct engine in there that IS compatible, you're going to need to see how many computers are locked. Absolute NIGHTMARE to straighten out, too. Your buddy might be better off cutting his losses and finding something else.   Welcome to post-2006 vehicle electronics. This is why I quit the industry, and drive nothing built after 1994. This stuff takes all the fun out of wrenching!

      True, hard to say what differences there may or may not be between Chev and GM as well as a production year or mid year part change either.    I just found it odd that under the Sierra choice on the Autel that many of the last few years of production year did not include the choice of changing the tire pressure but if that is an Autel thing or a GM thing as to why the choices were not there. Knowing what tpms sensors are on the truck should give some guidance into which choices on the tool even make sense to try as I wouldn't give up just yet with the tool but I guess he will see what if anything he comes up with if he finds out a bit more info and tries a few more things on the Autel.

      Needing this part.

      I'm sure if you went to a junkyard where you go in and pull the part off the truck yourself, not a used part place where they do it for you, you can get that part on it's own.  Depending on if and what else you would be buying, and time of day, they might even just skip over adding it as a item to the bill.
