Ok, so according to this gentleman he has 285/65/20s on his truck. All stock. No rubbing. I've heard from several people this won't work. I think it will and am willing to fix any slight rubbing issues...as long as they are slight. I plan on putting a leveling kit on as well which may help. Going on a 19 Sierra AT4. Has anyone been down this road guys?

34.5 will work fine but may require some love up front.  The GMC trucks have slightly smaller wheel wells than the Silverado so they cant quite fit as large a tire as their brother. 

 

Aftermarket wheels with aftermarket offsets have quite a few issues, but as long as you stay with the factory wheels you should be able to get 34.5 to fit with little to no rubbing.  People have been able to fit 35" tires on the Silverados as long as they utilize factory wheel sizing and offsets.

Um, that would constitute that they don't. I mean I could get a ton of tire sizes to fit, but how bad. If 37's roll down the road but rub, then they don't fit...

Anyway, if I felt this size was not a good idea because they rubbed enough to mention I would say "no ,they won't fit." If you want to not get this tire size because I had a slight rub one out of 50x pulling into my driveway too fast then you go right ahead. That's why I noted it.

      upgrading speakers on 2026 std cab WT...

      By bwiese · Posted

      I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose

      Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
