Which wheels

mcgee500 · March 4, 2020

2020 Black Chevy Silverado Z71 LTZ double cab. I have decided on these wheels they are the same but the color. What do you like best? Black or Black&silver?

Black and silver

You might want to double check but when I looked into the kmc 540 recon they did not fit the 2019-2020 Silverado / Sierra.

If your using 18 inch wheels they are perfect. I order the cheapest wheels possible when I order a truck because I know I'm changing them out for something every other truck on the road doesn't have.

The size doesn’t matter the 540 recons only come in 17 and 18 inch that I’ve seen; but it’s the brake caliper that prevents certain wheels from fitment. I haven’t physically placed the wheels on my truck but when looking up that wheel and i was told on several sites, that specific wheel did not fit my vehicle even after calling. Possibly a spacer is required for clearing the caliper and hopefully you’ll be good. I like to know how they end up for you because this is one wheel I was interested in!

Which factory wheels do you have? I personally don't see these choices as an improvement over the factory wheels that I've seen on the new trucks. I am not wishing to derail your plans but simply suggesting that you may be only switching to something that is different but not better. (I upgrade my factory tires soon after purchase which by default improves the look of the wheel, imo.) Drive your new truck stock for awhile. If you decide to swap wheels later, do it when the new car smell/excitement has subsided. It will give you a fun refresh!

I'll let you know. My truck isn't even being built until the week of 3-16 so I have no 2020 truck yet. I get my wheels and tires from Belle Tire in Grand Rapids, MI I have talked to them on the KMC wheels they said they will need to order the wheels that fit my truck No way I'm putting any spacer on, been down that path with a Jeep never ever again. As for factory wheels I have never kept them. I don't want the same look everyone else has.

It looks like we live on opposites sides of the country and it got me to wondering just what other tires and wheel sites were saying about these wheels fitting the same Chevy truck. So I started searching here in the north all the sites I looked at said they will fit my truck. But I did find the Tire barn that said they do not fit but that was in Texas. The only thing I know about Texas is it's hot and I'm never going back there. Thanks for letting me look around.

If you talked to kmc that gives me hope that they will fit, much better source than Joe Whoever that probably did exactly what I did by inputting my vehicle and told me it wouldn’t work. That caliper is a headache and makes me want to look into changing to a power stop caliper if possible but I am sure it will screw up Chevys new brake technology. I do hope they work out for you. I’m a ways from ordering wheels but I like to plan ahead so I’m always looking into what I need / want. I also would veer away from using a spacer, but I know some that have no problem with it.

I'll get back here in the next month when I should have my truck and the wheels and let you know.
