Post your 2014+ wheel/tire set-up

[POWERQUEST290]

So after hours of going through all the wheel and tire size posts i am still needing some help, and more confused than ever! I know topic has been beat to death, i just still don't find a definite answer, and would like some input before i pull the trigger on $1,300-$1,600 in tires! So here's what i got, I have a 2016 1500 Denali with a 2.5" front suspension maxx leveling kit with the rear 1.5" blocks with the black stamped steel uca''s and factory mud flaps. Living in northern N.Y. i wanted something more aggressive for winter then the stock Goodyear tire that were 275-55-20 which is 31.4" x 10.8". Having great success with the Cooper ATW's before on other trucks i wanted these tires, but to get more tread depth and a 10 ply tire for towing enclosed trailer i had to go with a different size. The closest to stock i could get was a 265-60-20 which is 32.5" X 10.4", this equals 1.1" taller and 0.4" wider. Having seen guys on here running bigger tires that that on stock 20" wheels and said they had no rub i thought i would be fine with this size. Mine rub the uca's pretty good at full lock and had to zip tie the liners back. Some guys on here say they have no rub with 285-75-18 which are 34.8" X 11.2" on sierras with same leveling kit with no rub on uca's? I believe the wheels are same offset which is +27MM, about 1".

With all that said, i can stand the rubbing since it only at full lock, just confused why a tire that is .4" narrower is rubbing with uca's, the stock tires never did, i get that they are taller and that was solved with the zip tying the liner back.

And the real hurdle that i need info on is that i have a new set of RBP 94R 20X9 wheels with 0 offset to go on in spring which i bought online from a off road truck shop in California who said that they run that wheel combo all the time on leveled GMC 1500"s with 295-55-20 and 295-60-20 Nittos with no rub at all. The wheel will be pushed about 1" out due to offset but the 295-60-20 is about 1.2" wider and 1.4" taller and 295-55-20 is about 1" wider than i got now, so if the offset cancels out the 1" i will still be rubbing just the same as i am now! I was looking also at 285-65-20 on leveled 1500"s those are taller yet, but a little narrower, but i would believe those would not fit at all since they are 34.5" high! All these numbers make my head spin!!

I guess it boils down to how much rub i can live with. Any info on any of your wheel tire combo that is close to this would help me! Thanks

Every tire is different unfortunately. I ran into similar issues running Duratracs. Everything I read said 275/60R20 don't rub but my Duratracs rub the carpet... Tread pattern/size makes a difference.

Remember Back Spacing plays into your offset #'s also...

Here's some nicer photos of my new setup, specs are as follows:

 

20x9 +0 XD820 Grenade

305/55/20 BFGoodrich KO2

Ziptied back side of front fenderwells back

NO RUBBING at all, in any direction at full lock

 

2.5" Pro Comp leveling kit - No changes to rear suspension from stock

 

let me know if you have any questions! I absolutely love the way it looks!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nice truck and love the wheels. I got the same ones but with the machined face.

Thanks for the pics! Love that look, awesome looking truck, that's exactly what i am going for! Never really thought about 305's, can't believe they don't rub, i am glad! I love it, and also like the bfg's. Thanks for the info!

This is the truck that started my love of this look. It is 295-55-20 on 20 x 9 0 offset, he said he has no rub!

I wanted a 295/55/20 but they told me I would have to trim for them not to rub since I don't have a leveling kit or lift yet. I guess I'll just run through these till I need to replace and get the 295s or even 305s.

After going through several posts on here and researching quite a bit (tire size, tire weights & tire dimensions, level kits, etc.) here is my setup. I was undecided between 305/55 vs 33x12.5 (bit more height vs bit more width in relation to amount of rubbing). I wanted to go aggressive as possible without losing too much comfort on ride. Mud terrains look great however eventually were not an option considering this is my daily and I never go off road. More then happy with how it looks. Love these tires + rims combo. Interestingly enough I wanted to go 20x9 +1 offset however the place I got my set from said Fuel was on backorder on that size and this rim color until February. I'm glad I went with the 20x10 since it gave me the lip on the rims and looks more aggressive. Pretty good rub initially however I trimmed the plastic piece at bottom back of front fenders along with a little tapping of the metal underneath the felt. Barely rubs at full lock in reverse. Rubs so little that once tires wear down a bit it no longer will. Hope this helps someone out there.

*Slight rubbing when reverse at full lock.

Im trying to decide between 2 sets of rims for my truck. The first one is the Method NV and the second is the Pro Comp Series 40.

Aw man. I have exact same wheels sitting in the bed of my truck to be installed tomorrow. I loved the old school look of that wheel. Stared at every design out there and got that one.

 

How do you like them?

Nice! I'm thinking of ditching my black NVs for Bronze.

You ditch those black ones and I want you to holler at me, I might buy them haha

If you were local, it'd be a done deal. Pretty much what is holding me back is that I don't want to have 2 sets of wheels laying around! Did that way too much with the G8.

If only y'all had something setup prior to Christmas! I was just up in Rochester, visiting family for the week. I would have definitely been willing to haul them back down to him (it'd be nice if the excess gas from Rochester/Blaine and OKC/Texas was covered though, as I would have done the Rochester/OKC part with/without wheels as I gotta get home somehow) lol
