Sounds like it might dictate how much trimming can actually be done haaaaa

Exactly, eek

View attachment 384583 Need to do the leveling kit still - but here is my 23 on 24x10 Lexani’s and 305/35R24 Nitto Recon Grapplers

Oh dang those are some rubber band tires! How's the ride quality on those?

Just added 1.25” Bora spacers.

Did you get spacers for a little poke or did you get aftermarket wheels with a different offset? Great looking truck. Would likes to see more pictures with the wheels straightened.

Thanks, yeah, just going for a little poke. Here are some more pics, the wheels I have are +15mm offset (factory z71 wheels are +24mm), so amount of offset is closer to a 1.5” spacer with a factory offset wheel.

So I’m working on a project here and after discussing this with a friend of mine he has a leveling kit on a truck with 35x12.5x20 what would stop that from working on a Tahoe? I’m getting 34x11.4x20 so if I can go up to 35 I wouldn’t mind…

As good as the stock tires for ride quality - no difference at neighborhood or highway speeds & great on beach sand too.

May have been overthinking the brackets. Poked around on Silverado forums and found the same brackets being referred to as “mud flap brackets” and seem to be commonly removed for additional clearance. Plenty of space at full lock now.

Nothing but fender and wheel well, seems to be just a place for the liner and/or mud flap (splash guard) to mount to and the piece sticking out, I was going to cut off, must just support the mud flaps if you have them. Or maybe just a carry over from the Silverado as I think they have a different mud flap than the SUV’s do.

Thats crazy. Thats a substantial bracket for nothing. Very odd. No a/c lines or wiring behind it ?
