315/70/17's on H2's with green keys?

[autopat]

Anyone running this combo, I just bought a set on Ebay, picking them up tomorrow. Just wondering how it fits, I've seen a couple on here before, but I don't remember who had 'em. Thanks, Pat

Yes you can run them. You might have to trim back the lower valance a bit on the corners but otherwise they will work out. Check out this thread over at dieselplace.com. There are only 164 pages of members trucks, several have H2 on them. http://dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=170

Thanks ctfan, I'm also a member over there, I just didn't even think about it, and I found 'em.

yes but you will have to do some trimming

[autopat]

Well I got 'em on this week, will post pics soon. No airdam trimming required, did move the bumper out 1in. tied back e-brake cable and inner fender at back, trimmed inner fender at front. Green keys were cake, actually rides and drives better than before.

How bout some pics, I bought some H2 wheels a few months ago for dirt cheap, but need the rubber. I can't decide between the 315's or the 295's by Nitto. How hard was it to move the bumper out? Havn't really considered that, but might. Thanks

The green keys are the factory keys for a 1500 truck so any dealership can get them. In fact, you could probably do a post in the "for sale / wanted" section to see if anyone has a set they have replaced with a set of Ford keys on a 1500. I have a set of green keys that I removed from my '03 1500 which I will probably throw on the HD sometime in the future (glad I kept them now ).

Don't go to the dealer! They will rape you for them. You can get them for under $50 for the pair at gmpartsdirect.com I'll have to get you the part number when I get home. As far as the tires, if I didn't already have the 315's, I'd go with the 295's, the 315's are just a tad tight in there. Moving the bumper out was just a matter of loosening all the bumper bolts, taking the two out of the end brackets (under the ends of the bumper) and placing a 1 inch spacer, or a bunch of washers between the bracket and the body, but you will need some longer bolts to put back in. I will post some pics tonight if I get a chance. Pat

Well, here's a quick one before I hit the hay

 

[autopat]

OK, 1 more

 

[autopat]

Part number for the "green keys"is 15592573. and the total price with shipping was $45.30 for the pair.

Those Hummer wheels look nice . I have heard of people taking a printout of the price from partsdirect or any other internet site to the dealership and sometimes the dealership would actually match the price.... may be worth a try!

What's the deal with the center caps.

Will the H2 caps not clear the fullfloater rear??

[autopat]

Correct! The axles stick out about 3 inches farther than the stock H2 Caps. Besides, I think the stock H2 caps are just too plain, I like the 2500 caps, gives them a different look. I just bought an entire set of 315's today for $200, they were still on the H2 rims, so I told him I would just put those on my truck have mine dismounted (2 of mine were almost bald) and give him my rims, and the guy I bought them from thought they were different wheels than mine altogether, because of the caps.
