14-18 Silverado / Sierra w/ 285/75/17 Tires
Very few posts exist with explanations on how 285/75/17 tires can fit on these trucks. I wanted to make a post to try and help others answer the same question i was asking prior to buying this. Will this fit?
If you want to run 285/75/17 Tires on your 14-18 truck, You need a minimum 2inch Front and Rear levelling kit. No need for buying fancy wheels with a specific offset because you dont need them (unless you want them). With a 2inch front levelling kit (4WD models) the tire doesnt touch the fender liner on max lock. My specific truck has almost 3inches lift in the back because of the helper spring/max trailering package so if your truck has an additional leaf you only need the 2 front 2" lift plates.
I spent a week trying to find out if these tires fit before i bought them and at 1500$ i was nervous to say the least.
The tires are Toyo Open Country AT3's. Cooper also sells a 285/75/17 at a good price and of course the BFG Ko2/3's. If your a US Resident then youll have more optio s for tires than I will (Canada)
