You may need different rims/tires or some trimming.  There are 4 sizes listed on the Fabtech site for this lift.  Although it's not marked, the Trailboss is the one that fits the 35x12.5, the 295 width tire is for the AT4.  The wheel wells are smaller as I mentioned earlier.  The Fabtech kit also has a 5" backspacing which your 22x10 doesnt have.  The Rough Country kit accepts your rims offset but not this kit.

Ya I saw that when I was buying the kit. I called Fabtech they told me there would be minimal trimming with that setup. I guess trimming is the only way now.

Seems like it.  You could try to contact Fabtech and see if you can return the kit but I doubt you'll have any luck on that route.

I love the look/offset and tire wheel combo! So really no looking to return anything. Just need it to fit. I thought my biggest issues was clearing the brake caliper LOL

 

Anyone have any experience with Norcal Modding a new sierra??

Is it rubbing on the metal or on the carpeted fender wall?

I've got a new 19 Trail Boss and wanna grab that Fabtech lift as well. I'm just hesitant because I really like my stock wheels. On the site it says I've got to swap them out. I've never used spacers on a vehicle so I'm not sure if that would fix the issue.

You can keep them with the BDS kit.

 

Edit: sorry, I forgot to mention you’d remove the trail boss GM 2” kit. Once that’s done the 6” can be installed.

That’s a pictures of it on stocks. Not driveable. Just sitting for when I was waiting for spacers

Huge difference for sure. I'm gonna do a little more research on the spacers. The black wheels on my new truck are one of my favorite things about it. I just think our tires are a little small from the factory and I'd like them to be a little wider. My last 2015 Silverado had a zone lift and I had zero problems with it. I'm sure we'll see a lot more coming to the aftermarket soon.

Zone just released their 6” lift for the T1
