2023 Ultimate Denali tire options

CamerNic · December 31, 2023

I am looking for tire options on a stock Ultimate Denali, wondering if anyone has pics with 305/45r22’s with no modifications. Ty!

About the 8th post down in the thread below you will see a Red stock GMC Sierra Elevation with 305/45r22 tires with no issues. It doesn't matter that it's not a Denali trim level. All the trim levels except the AT4 have the same clearances. Your good to go.

I run 305/45R22 on my Silverado RST.

I went with Firestone A/T2 285/45/22 all terrain on my 2022 refresh LTZ Z71. Ride great, quiet and balanced out perfect.

I'll upsize mine a bit once I get the life out of the originals.

No pics yet but I have the Hankook Dynapro AT2 tires in 305/45r22 on my '23 Denali Ultimate. No lift. It's the size they should have put on the car, in my opinion.

Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find a tire shop that carries the Hankook’s. Looking at the Toyo open country at3’s in the same size. Tire shop recommended Mickey Thompson baja boss at’s but they have a super aggressive look, I am thinking too aggressive! Love to see some pics when you have a chance!

Most places do not stock these Hankooks for some reason. But most can order them. I took a chance and ordered them, I'm glad I did. I have 20,000mls on mine now, and I am completely satisfied with this tire.

Tires fit the truck perfectly. Could never figure out why gm puts such dinky tires on these trucks. It was worse with my previous truck, 2019 at4!

No Toyo’s until March! Doh! Living in Canada has its disadvantages…

Glad you started this thread and perfect timing. I was thinking the same thing for my 2023 Ultimate. My tire of choice is the Michelin Defender LTX m/s. That comes standard on many Denalis. However mine came with Bridgestone Alenza as 02's They are good tires and no complaints and they only had 19,000 miles But I was thinking about something wider and the Defender LTX comes in the 305/45-22. In side by side reviews, the Defender LTX wins over the Bridgestone in all areas. It's a great touring tire with good mud/snow capabilities. A bit pricy at $342.00 each.

Discount tire matched NTB price of $315 each. Minus $80.00 online ordering. Minus $80 for having a Discount tire credit card. And they removed the disposal fee and took my used tires in on trade allowing my $45.00 each for my Bridgestones. Sure I could have probably sold them myself for more didn't want the hassle.

The new 305/45-22 Michelins fit perfect and look much better. Agree it' the size GM should use from the factory. Here's a few pictures with before and after.
