Posted June 23, 2005

I just got my dads 98 Sierra 2500 and it needs tires bad. Just wondering how big can i go with the tires before they start rubbing. What sizes have u put on your trucks and whats your opinions on the sizes and how they lookl. I know it will kill my gas milage. Also will al the newer stock style rims off of chevy and siera trucks fit on it. As long as they are 8 lug. I like the newer stock rims for some reason. Thanks for the help

- OCI, not when but why?

  I know the system does not sample the oil, though I would expect slightly more sophisticated algorithms than what you posted or what I found in 18-NA-125. The coolant temperature readings and how it alters the oil life are probably the least understood in the algorithm. Nothing definitive is published regarding how those temperatures are used that I can find beyond the bulletin I referenced. Also, I agree with the disconnect between coolant temperature and oil temperature. Maybe they aren't concerned with oil temperature (directly) or can extrapolate what the oil temperature should be based on coolant and ambient temperature... all speculation on my part how they are using coolant temperature to 'degrade' oil life, I doubt it to be a simple calculation. I found lots of suggestions that it monitors/uses other parameters, including oil temperature directly, as well as someone saying injector pulse width has a heavy hand in the algorithm. I KNOW a bunch more schooling, time and money than what I have has been spent on the OLM than what I ever could, to end up at a maximum OCI of 7500 miles.

  4 1 post posters, and only 1 of them returned to the site after posting, none have returned to the site after 2023, so you aren't going to get a response from any of them.

  Think what you want and justify your high cost of living. I’m very happy with our quality of life, low gas prices as well of low taxes.
