I have a winter set of rims and tires I was using in my 2017 Denali 1500 and now have a 2023 Denali ultimate. Dealer tells me the offset has changed and this winter combo won’t fit up properly on the new truck. I have tried a couple different tire shops to get clarification on this and keep running into tire shop guys scratching their heads. My winters are 20” rims on 275/60 r20’s and my ultimate is 22’s on 275/50 r22’s. Anyone know for sure if this can be used besides the TPMS being different sensors. Mainly a question on the offset

I believe the offset is 28. Check out the specs on some of these sets. I have no affiliation with this seller or their site.

I found them while looking for a set of Winter wheels and tires for my truck. They sell a LOT of factory sets. I too have the 275/60R20 wheel/tire setup on my Silverado and this seller shows them as having an offset of 28.

As I understand it is the angle of the spokes on SOME rims that is the problem. 

The calipers fit inside the rim, but the spoke hits the corner of the caliper.

(There are still 17" wheels available on some trims)

 

In threads soon after the T1 generation was released it seemed that some previous generation factory wheels would work and some would not --- and if would depend on the angle of the wheel spokes relative to the calipers. 

 

Offset is the centerline of wheel relative to face of wheel that meets the wheel hub -- which doesn't directly account for the spoke/disc shape of the wheel.  Wheel could have the same offset but have different spoke angles.

2023 upfitter guide lists 24 and 26 offsets on 17 and 18" wheels

Didn't find where/if there is a listing for 20's and 22's

Saw a picture somewhere that showed a build-out on the outboard side of some of the calipers. And it was this that some wheels were making contact with, preventing them from being used.

Why don't you just test fit one on the front and one on the rear?

That is my plan

    • 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 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.
