So I'm thinking about getting a set of the 18" wheels that came on the 07-13 Silverados. However, I do have a couple questions:

1. Does the bolt pattern match up? I'll post a picture of the wheels if it helps.

2. Will they fit without having to lift it? Mine is an 02 4x4 and I've seen a picture of it done before but I'm not sure if it was a 4x4 or a Z71 and I think the Z71 is a little higher off the ground!

3. Anybody have any experience with the tires that come on these wheels? They are Bridgestone Dueler A/T

Wheels will fit just fine, Bridgestone's are decent tires, need the tire size for clearance.

The tires that come on those wheels are 265/65R18's. However, I can also just get the wheels and put on some tires that I want. Any idea if 275's would still fit fine? However if you say those are good tires they are selling this combo for a deal and I've heard they are pretty good before so I may just stick with em

I think you can run them, but Id go measure your fenders to be sure

center of your fender down to the ground. Then top of tire to bottom. That way you have two points of reference for clearance and current tire height.

They will fit just fine. I have 276/65r18 on mine. Stock height 2wd. No rubbing at all.
