Post your 2014+ wheel/tire set-up

corncob · July 17, 2017

if you think hitting a nerve entails pointing out an ignorant way of thinking then I guess that's what it is. I don't have a crazy setup so it's not personal towards me, but to the guys who do I can understand not wanting to chance bashing their stuff off-road, at the track or wherever. Some people like the look but don't want the risk. ‍

Me asking if his sister had done mods to her Camaro is "an ignorant way of thinking"?

no, thinking a lifted truck has to go off-road , or a built car has to be raced is.

Please feel free to quote where I said that.

Personally I would rather off-road in a crew cab truck if it had a 2.5 or 3" coilover setup rather than a 5-7" lift. You don't gain that much extra clearance and with the size/length/height of the truck you just become a bit more top heavy and expensive. So I've never really looked at the larger lifts and thought "oh man, he/she must/should go off-road a lot". So I can appreciate your argument, but you don't really have anything to convince me of.

i wasn't saying you specifically, I was talking about general thinking. And from a basic 6" lift you don't gain much at all, and most (mine included) are all just blocks and spacers. For highway driving it's great, for "hardcore off-roading" not so much.

Gotcha.

I'm honestly more interested in how folks came to desire a lifted/leveled truck with larger tires, especially if they don't take it off-road (note: I'm not saying it's wrong at all).

I lived in a city for 7 years, but I came from a rural background and grew up with a 90's Chevy with big BFGs, so even when I lived in a city I still wanted that for when I drove on dirt roads and in the snow 5-10 times a year.

But I'm curious what drove others to get that over a sports car or an SUV or a stock truck. It might be anywhere from "it makes me feel like a badass" (to each their own, who can say that's wrong?) to "it's what I've always driven" to "my friend drove a big truck and I liked it" to "I don't want to feel like I'll get run over on the freeway".

STOP FIGHTING LIKE MY PARENTS. lol

Some people like the look.

Kinda like people workout and they work in a office and play no sports. So being muscular has no benefits to their everyday life.

You're an angry, raging meathead, aren't you?!? I knew it! Take your steroids and get out of here [emoji23]

But point taken. Plus, you never know when you might need to be your office's very own Terry Tate, right? [emoji1377]

lol I'm not in shape in the slightest. I only run and swim if my life depends on it. Or if the ice cream truck is making a break for it.

OK..me again..yea I know this is getting frustrating. Since I've read a ton of the g2s suck I've dropped them...and with that have kinda shifted a little of what I want. I've looked thru this tread and google and everywhere and I've got some down so here's the question. I was planning on 20x9+1 but thinking a 20x10 -12. Reason being for later on when I lift. Also I'm just gonna stick to a 285/55/20 making sure I fit. That's the question too. I'm sure on a 20x9+1 that will fit but does anyone know if mounted to a 20x10 -12? Will the 20x10 require metal trimming or such or stick out too far? Carpet trimming is OK metal is not. Should I just stick to a 9 wide even if later on lifted ( maybe a 5")? The other tire is I'm looking at the Toyo oc at2. Anyone running these happy or have complaints on them? Gonna pull the trigger tomorrow and if the oc at2 is a good tire and a 20x10 -12 will fit on a 3 inch level I'll go that route
