 Hey guys, I'm sure this has been asked before but I can't seem to find a straight answer on the forums. I'm looking to put Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my 2018 Chevy Silverado Centennial edition 1500 LTZ with 22's. The stock tire is Bridgestone Duelers AT and the size is 285/45/22. Nitto has the Ridge Grapplers in that size and I'm not sure how to tell if they would fit. If that size wouldn't fit, would a 2" level do the job to work with those wheels? Thanks for the help.

Are you replacing the stock 285-45-22 Bridgestones with the same size Nitto Ridge Grapplers?
I can't see why they won't fit without a level kit. They are the same size.

Welcome to the site.

 

First, congratulations on your taste in trucks!

 

Just go to a site like Tire Rack, or Discount Tires, they have a tire calculator that will give you the overall diameter of the tire you are looking at compared to stock.

Tire size questions have been asked countless times and there is usually no straight answer, except in your case. That is the stock size that is on there and you are replacing it with the same size it will fit, not sure why you would second guess that it wouldn't fit? Either way, for other questions just search the forums first, chances are a common question has been asked way too many times to where a new post is any relevant help as people are tired of answering it.

That makes sense, thanks guys. I think I was a bit confused because it doesnt show up as something that would fit my truck when I go to tire rack or direct tire etc, even though it's the same size. Im not sure why that is, but like you all said its the same size it should fit...

I have found that on many tire retail sites, you need to find the tire first, and the check that it fits by adding truck, versus entering your truck first and asking for tires that fit. Don't know why.

    • are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.
    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death. 
    • In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them. 
    • I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.
