So did you end up doing any leveling kit, or no?

Nope.

Mine. 305 with some grinding of the mud flap.

What front mud flaps are those? Do they interfere with the power assist steps?

I’m pretty sure they are from Husky. They were the first to offer front and back for the power steps. GMC only had rear back in 2015.
They work nice. No interference. Unless you get 305’s. [emoji3]

Man that looks nice but eek, so tight near the flap. I can imagine a rock or stick just jamming in there and tearing shit up! Probably impossible but...

Do they make 295’s that fit these?

Not nitto. 285’s or 305’s. They are less than 3/4” wider according to their website.

If that makes you cringe, this will make you pass out. [emoji38]

Meh. It's just a self-clearancing design.

^^Goodyear Forteras are what grand Cherokees use to come with on 20”s up until 2016. They are the most hated tire I have ever seen on a forum lol

I had Michelin Premiers on my Premier burb for about 38k miles. They were great tires! No pics of it haha but I’m sure I’ll slap them on this new one soon.

Did you get a chance to try them in snow? If so, how did they do?

Have been down the same road...factory tires then Premier LTX which only lasted around 22k, and currently Michelin Defender LTX. Currently have around 12k miles on them and they still look brand new. IMO, definitely the tire to go with (on these trucks) especially if dealing with vibrations and buffeting.

Did you get a chance to try either of these tires in snow? How were they?

I've run the Defenders in the snow this season. I don't know how to measure it, but they are better traction than the stock tire for sure. Of course, the stock tires were near bald when I replaced them mid-winter, so not a very fair comparison, but with the life of the stock tire being around 30K miles, I wouldn't have even considered buying those again. Hoping I get much better than that out of my Defenders.
