What Size Tires Will Fit A Chevy Trail Boss Without Cutting?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 окт 2021
- The Chevy Silverado Trail Boss has very narrow wheel wells in the front and will not accept a much larger tire. What will you have to do to increase the tire size? That's the question that I try and answer in this video.

I’m running 35x11.5 Toyo Open Country A/T III’s on stock wheels, with the 2 inch SST lift kit by Ready Lift, and I get zero rubbing. No cutting, no removal of mud flaps. It’s the perfect setup for me.
Got pics?
I wanna go with the 1.75 ready lift level kit. You think I’ll be able to fit 12.5 wides on there without contacting that upper control arm? I’m going to get an aftermarket set of wheels with 1mm offset
Great job on your 1st video of the channel. I am looking forward to seeing more of the video's so keep them coming.
Thanks Barry I appreciate that man
Wow I am a cali guy that loves cars and trucks and the tuning deals even though I don't work on cars but I love the styles and ways cars look
This is awesome keep up this great new channel
Yeah I forgot to mention that I don't get to get out much due to the certain things and I miss my shows but this can help me catch up thanks
Awesome man. Congrats on the new channel. Of course it took me 2 seconds to subscribe, (had to leave 2A to come over here)! You do a better than great job on the other channels and can’t wait to see what you have in store for us here! I’m a 2A loving off road guy myself based out of the High Desert in CA (unfortunately) so looking forward to your content. Keep up the great work!!!
I moved here from the Antelope valley so High Desert myself. Thank you
Good luck on the new channel!
Cool content bro, keep up the great work. Thank you for all.the effort you put into your content!
Looks like a lot of fun & good info. WIshing you the best.
Just got locked in here to. Great success for all your channels brother
I love fire arms and trucks, awesome channels greatly appreciate the content.
Hell yeah, nice! Thanks bro
If you stick with factory offset you can go to 34” no problem
how wide though ?
im glad i found your comment because im a 1st time buyer looking for information. so factory offset is like +24 right those chevy 20in rims, so can i put a set of atturo trail blades 285/40r24 on a set of 24x10 +24 replica snowflakes on my 2014 Silverado stock and have no rub, that atturo tire is exactly 11.2 inches wide.
@@mikeb8497you want to put a 24 inch rim on stock wheel well height?
Nice Guns, Trucks and Cars! The best hobbies! Nice channel along with the awesome daily shooter channel.
Thank you for being the ONLY video that actually answers the root question, and doesn't first add a leveling kit or lift or cutting, or any of the other 100 ways to NOT answer the question. Bravo for giving the straight dope! Much appreciated. I've decided to stay stock to also keep the stock center of gravity. This thing is a beast already. It comes with 32s, and 33s wouldn't be worth it, so 34s or 35s would be the minimum upgrade for me. Stock engineering for the win in this case!
I love these videos but there is no way I will modify and spend all the money..my stock Trailboss is just fine for me...i don't do any dunes or off-roading besides driving to a campsite..set up a tent..drive my dirty bikes..but I love all the knowledge you just gave me
I love your content. I'll gladly listen to you talking about cars and trucks. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks man
That offset is the main issue. Running a 0 up to about -10 instead of -24 would help how close that tire gets drastically.
Love both your 2A channels. And looking forward to all the upcoming automotive content. If you can throw in some classic muscle cars too that would be great !!!

👍 OH YEAH on the Classic Muscle Cars. I grew up in the late 50's to the mid, late 60's in my teen years. For my 25th Birthday, I bought a new 69 Chevelle SS 396. Sure wish I had that car today. All of my friends had Muscle cars, Road Runners, Super Bee's,Mach 1's, Chevelle's, Old's 442, etc, etc. Great cars, great times and, a great era.
I've got some stuff coming up that you might like. Thanks man
@@carstruckstv6097 I'm sure gonna look forward to watching your new channel. Nothing like the sound of a rumbling Big Block 👍.

Good info on tire side i've been thinking on putting a leveling kit on my 2018 f 150
Great info. Love the front bumber on that truck. Could you tell me who makes it. Thanks. Keep the great content coming
I'm running 35x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my Trail Boss with 2" sst lift kit by ready lift - total 4 inches (leveled) and I get very minimal rub only in reverse at full lock. Just removed the mud flaps up front. And I haven't removed the metal bracket underneath wheel well liner yet. Still good clearance and the stance is mean 👌🏼
Is that setup on stock wheels?
@@connorstewart7373 No, I'm running fuel wheels 18x9 -12offset. If you're running stock wheels you'll have to run 2 inch wheel spacers to get proper clearance.
Can you use your 4 auto and 4 hi with that set up?
@@louismoreno28 you can't use the auto feature. But 4 hi and 4 low work just fine. I run 2 hi for daily driving when there's no snow.
I have the 2" SST lift kit as well and I have my factory 18s with fury 35s and I font rub at all. Personally I'm not going higher than 18s because I dont see the point but for me I would like to put 37s on there but either go with BDS or the Fabtech 4inch lift.
Have 35s on my 2021 TrailBoss
On the stock 20inch wheels with the 2 inch lift had to cut mud flap and tuck in the fender liner
Nice job Brother looking good.
Looking for advice I just installed the ready lift2”SST kit in my 2022 trail boss.
I don’t have knowledge when it comes to wheels and tires but I just want to be like 1” sticking out of the truck body and also don’t wanna do any cutting what wheels and tires sizes do you recommend me.
Thank You I really appreciated your help
I forgot to mention this truck already came from factory with 2”lift plus 2” that added total 4”
I am wondering exact same. I’m looking at a 23 Trail Boss LT..want a levelling kit (with the factory 2”), like you, I want a slightly larger tire and wider for a meaty stance. Mine will be coming with 20” rims…I will prob look for the Goodyear Duratrack….they work well on my ZR2.
I’m a dodge guy but I like your gun stuff so hear I am! God bless you🇺🇸
My neighbor has a Hellcat so were gonna do some videos together and see how they compare
2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 RST. Leveling kit. 33x12.5x20 Kenda Klever RTs. Stock rims. No rubbing, no cutting. Just my experience. Thanks.
I've got a '23 LT TB and am looking to go to a 33" but about .5" narrower than stock. (255/80r17). Should work? I'll also be replacing front bumper.
looking forward to more good stuff on your new channel.
Thanks John
What did you do for the wheel well cutting for the bumper I just got a matrix fab 4 for my trailboss there are tan brackets on the front near the front bumper did you just cut it?
I fit 35x12.50 on the stock 20" wheel with a level kit and i have the same about an 1/8th of an inch of clearence in the back at full turn but i love the look of the 35's
Are you running spacers? Im putting a 4" lift on my RST and I was prob gonna put 35x11.50 tires on the stock 20" wheels. But I wouldnt think 35x12.50 would fit
I have a 21 z71 silverado non trail boss leveled with bilstein 5100s. Would 295/70/18s fit with some minor trimming? I guess thats abiut a 34.4 inch tall tire.
Have a 21 LT Trailboss and just did Bilstein 6112's on front with Bilstein Upper Control Arms and Bilstein dual reservoir 5160's on rear. Got approximately 1.25 inches of lift in the front with 0 on the rears, so it is pretty much level and then put 35" Nitto Ridge Grapplers (285/75R 18) with the mud flap delete kit and ¼" spacers. Looks terrific is an understatement and gained around 2" of height from the tires and shock height adjustment (but leveled), the tires are super quiet on the road compared to the crappy OEM Duratrac's, and the ride over heavy washboard dirt roads is perfect with zero of that nasty rear end side to side chatter with those junk Ranchos. Didn't expect the ride on pavement to be so comfortable too but it definitely is and if you want a quality set of 35"s for height and quieter performance, a good level truck, a far better and more capable suspension than stock, and zero rubbing at full throw in 4WD then this right here is your formula and you can still use the Auto mode for drive selection unlike regular level and/or the Readylift SST 2.0 kits. It's not cheap but it's the trick setup and love driving it fast out in the boonies now👍
Something different, looks like fun 👍👍
Running 35x12.50r17 0 offset on a leveled Silverado; “same height as stock trail boss”, and with a simple fender mod clears just fine.
I am subscriber 40. Somewhere between ultra fans and family members showing support
Good start up 👍
Very nice I've been wanting a chevy on 35 for a while now. Maybe some videos on off road shooting sites
can you do 2" wheel spacers with the stock 20" wheels on the 2022 to give it a more aggressive look?
So I should be okay with a 20x10 on 33s with a lvling kit. Without any rubbing even while I’m use.
Great looking truck ! I’m running 35” Nitto ridge grapplers with a leveling kit and minimal front mud flap trimming. Running the the same wheels you have in 18x10 and -24 offset. Our truck has been wheeled in Wyoming, South Dakota and many other places. Mostly though in the Daniel Boone Back Country Byway in the red river gorge area of Kentucky. Great place to wheel, y’all should check it out some time.
Hi! I have a 2021 custom trail boss running the wrangler Goodyear duratrac tires. Looking to do the nitto ridge grapplers, my dad has the same but they’re 33’s on his F150 and they look really good. Do you recommend them on the trail boss??
@@blkbeastz71 absolutely the best tire I’ve ever purchased. I have 17k miles on them so far, been through many rocky terrain and never had an issue with them. They still have over 3/4 tread left on them and they ride good as well as quiet on the road.
@@buckeyejeeper9996 thanks! I currently have a 2 inch lift from the factory, was looking into doing a 3.5 from rough country. Do I need the 3.5 to fit the nitto’s? Or do you think I can fit it in with the 2 inch I have now?
@@blkbeastz71 all I have over top of the factory trail boss 2” lift is a rough country 1.5” leveling kit up front. There’s better options out there like the ready lift. But I simply chose it for the price and sake of saving some cash. Done a front mud flap bracket delete and that was it. I believe the ready lift raises the front 2” and comes with a spacer for the rear on top of the factory 2” lift. It probably rides better, but it’s whichever you’d prefer. A level in front got me all I needed to clear the 35” Nitto’s.
@@blkbeastz71 with the factory wheels they will fit without a level with minimal rubbing though from what I’ve read. Unfortunately I put aftermarket wheels on already with -24 backspacing so I added the leveling kit up front.
I am adding a six-inch lift to my 2023 Serra. I would like to know the biggest or widest tire I can go with without cutting. I would like to jump up to a 22" wheel.
I see you put aftermarket rims, would these tires fit on the stock rims of a 2021 GMC Sierra Elevation? the stock tire is 275/60R20
285 70 r18 work perfect with a 1.5 inch leveling kit. no rub. looks awesome
You think 285/75r18 tires would work with no rubbing with 1.50” spacers? I have the 1.75” ready lift leveling kit.
Nice love the channels
Great video bro.
The Daily Shooter sent me! 😂
will a 285 75 R18 fit on stock rim and what will i need to change for it to fit on truck?
I got 35 12.5R18' Nitto Ridge Grapplers on 2020 Custom Trail Boss 18" stock wheels with a front leveling kit; I only get slight rub on full lock turns and slight rub on 3/4 lock reversing, but other than that everything was fine for me. Chevy dealer couldnt believe it.
Did u put any spacers or are you sitting on stock offset?
@@vincentperpetua5384 No spacers, but I’d recommend them depending on how much lug space you have. My tires were slightly rubbing on the UAC. Back tires had no issues
@@djkly1 thanks man I appreciate the reply even though ur original comment was made a long time ago. I’m gonna go with a 1mm offset wheel instead of stocks so hopefully I won’t have any clearance issues with the upper control arm when I slap on the 12.5 wides
What headlights do you have on the trail boss?
how are these trucks used found a 2021 trail boss lt
Where did you get the bumper?
That Daily dude from 2A news sent me to check out this channel 😋
I bought a 2020 Chevy Silverado Rst the previous owner lowerd it and had a c-notch put into place with a bolt on kit to help reinforce the frame. I plan to let the truck with a 3 1/2 inch lift. My question is the frame still safe structurally to go off Roading and to e able to load and haul .
Plan to lift the truck
What if you got a set of steel 17” spare wheels?
Any issue with your level kit?
I’m here to lol 👍🏼
I miss my home!
What type of bumper you got there
Congratulations.
Good luck with new channel Well
I have fuel maverick’s with -18offset I have 285 55 20” on now with no rub so I’m gonna try 295 just to get a little fatter tire 👍👍👍
Hey man, I'm putting some 4play 20 x 10 -18mm wheels on a 285 55 20 on my 2020 Silverado 1500 with 2 inch lift. Everyone is telling me I'm going to have to trim. Sounds like you have a similar setup is that correct? Did it end up rubbing or requiring trimming?
*Subscriber 262!*
I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen with this channel, but I’m excited!!
*Let’s Go Brandon!!*
LGB!!
Consider wheel offset , tire size ( diameter ) , suspension compression. You're gonna rip the inner fender .
Did you mean 6 to 7 inch lift above the already 2 inch stock to fit 35s? or would a 4 inch lift on top of the 2" stock work for 35's? sub'd and liked :)
I’m running 22s and 37s on my stock 22 trail boss, just factory 2in lift no rub
Im running 295 70 18 (34 inch) on stock rims on my stock trail boss. Only minor rub at full lock. No trimming
Would I be safe then running a 285 75 18? Like yours, a stock Trail Boss With the stock wheels. I’m thinking I would be all right with the 11.3 width going up to the same 34.8 diameter as the 295. I definitely don’t wanna do any cutting or trimming.
@@Chief74 well from what I just read on a tire size comparison chart, the 285 75 is 34.8 and the 295 70 is 34.3 so you'll be a half inch taller. But again the rubbing is so minimal that I think you'll be good man! And honestly, you wouldn't have to trim much off the mud flap. Let me know how it works out man!!
@@alexwright9145 Cool, thanks man
Wish I could figure out how to share a picture on here. I’d love to show you my truck, I think you’d love it !
I have 35 x12.50 on my stock 20 inch rims and have no rubbing
Nice truck
The key to fitting bigger tires with no lift is sticking with stock wheels. 34s fit on my trail boss before I lifted it with stock wheels. As soon as I went to a wheel with less backspacing I was rubbing. Once I lifted mine with Bilstein 6112s (2 inches over stock TB) I STILL make more contact with 34s than I did with stock wheels.
So 295/ 70-18 is what you are running with stock wheels before the lift?
@@the_anxiousphotographer that is correct, I was running that on stock wheels pre-lift. Now I'm running the same size on aftermarket wheels with Bilstein 6112s that gave me about 2 inches of lift.
Correct…this guy gave some terrible info because he’s basing his info on a ridiculous offset wheel. Keep stock wheel and 34.s are easy with no rub
Yeah, I've got 35s with stock wheels with a 2 inches of lift that in guessing came from the factory.
I’m running BFG KO2’s 285/65R20 that is a 34.5X11.50 on the Stock 20” wheel option on one TrailBoss and 35X12.50R18 on another TrailBoss with zero modifications No cutting or removing anything they do barely rub at full lock not even noticeable unless I’m in reverse and the tire hits the hard upper edge of the mud flap. With the 20” option the tire is a 275/60R20 is 33x11 so your biggest issue is incorrect offset and back space.
So the 34s rub too or just the 35s?
@@bmx7596 both rub about the same amount the 35’s true size is (34.50x12.50r18) the only difference is one is 11.5” wide the other is 12.5” wide. And then the difference of the wheel width and backspace / offset.
Z71
Factory 20x9.0 Wheel Offset = +28 mm - Back Space = 6.10" Factory 18x8.5 Wheel Offset = +26 mm - Back Space = 5.77"
@@2looney1313 I just had a guy throw on 34s and you are correct, reversing and hitting the back fender liner. It wasn't terrible, but I do off road. Thinking of going under the knife

This is great news I’m a guns and gasoline/Diesel guy too. Can you update the community on the “RPM” act recognizing the protection of motor sports act. Without this legislation Motorsport is finished
Another vote for this very important movement!
Can you put 305/65/18 on a stock wheel ?
LT/ Trail boss
Yes
The offset of aftermarket wheels has a huge impact on whether a bigger tire will rub. The stock offset is +24, and if you stay in that same range (down to about +18), you can get away with a 295/70R18, which is a hair under 34" (it's approximately 33.7" x 11.2"). But you won't get that aggressive stance because you're keeping the tire inside the wheel wells. But yes, if you want poke, you need to lift the sh*t out of your Chev, and even worse for a GMC. However, going to 7" to fit 35s is a bit overboard - there's plenty of Trail Boss set ups out there that have just 2" over stock (so about 4" if you include the factory 2" lift) that fit 35s, with some trimming.
No cutting. Remove the mud flaps and Mcgaughys has a mud flap delete that looks factory, no more rub , and if you still need more room there is a bracket behind fender liner Remove it and pin the fender liner back get another 2in
Yep the key is staying with a + to 0 offset wheels I'm running Method 17in×8.5 0 offset on 33 no rub
What size tire? I have the same methods and want to run 295/70 toyo mt

Anyone know if these are 10 or 12 wide rims ?
Nice
Cool truck.
Wonder how it compares to the Raptor.
Congrats on the new channel and keep up the good work.👍🏽
It doesn’t… are you f kidding me bro… it’s just a basic ass silverado 1500 with a tiny ass lift from the factory lmao. It’s only a trail boss because it’s 1.5” taller than the previous silverados lol
Let's talk about that front bumper? Got an install video?
Ready lift sales you could fit up to 35 inch tires with that kit !!!! But I put on my 2021 trail boss with 20x9 0 offset and 34 bfg and they rub ! I called them and no solutions !!!!!
The factory 20x9 is a 275 60 r20 it comes out 32.99 factory I have lt trail boss with the factory 20s I'm planning on doing the sst 2in kit with a mud flap delete kit and a high cearlance bumper and plan on running 37s with a 20x9 plus 18 offset if 18 offset won't work go to 0 offset
I understand he said with out cutting but he has the high cearlance bumper already on it so the only difference between what I'm talking about to what his is. Is just the mud flap delete kit
nice... I literally just bought a 2021 trail boss
Nice! Did you get the Custom or LT? I kinda wanted to go LT but I knew I would destroy the leather going off road a lot so I went Custom
LT. not too serious off reading. Use my RZR for that
*off roading
You never talked about the new bumper 😔
I’ve seen 34.5s fit on stock rims with very little rub no level
yeah but full reverse or off roading and you're in trouble
# 143 Love the Jeep life and guns and guns and Jeeps and so on LOL
Alright! Let’s do this….
So 275/ 70-18 should fit just fine on stock wheels which are 33..2" I think the comments about the offset is what really matters. I probably wouldn't go over 33's as I tow in summer pretty regular. And yes they should have put stock 33's on the trail boss from factory. Silly Chevy.
Agreed. Tires way too small from factory
35x12.50 18’s on just the ready 1 1/4 lift no rubbing
Good to see you are a Chevy guy!!!
Did you even think about putting new larger tires on to see if this could be done before making the video?
Great info! 2nd ever
There is so many other options vs 32 straight to a 35x12.5
The video was about how big you can go. You didn’t cover the unknown grey area, like everyone else avoids.
And the grey area is?
How about that front bumper
275 7018s will fit as well

🔥🔥🔥🔥
I have 35x12.50R18 on my trailboss I deleted the mudflats
On stock wheels? Zero rub now?
👍
You went with a 2.5” wider Tire and 2” less offset…of course it’s going to rub
It's the negative offset that causes the problems. If you went to a positive offset those 33's should fit fine rather than going to a smaller tire.
Lol how prices have changed. Ontario 2023 trail boss lt 5.3 try 82 000 plus now. Custom is 70 000 plus. I bought mine new in 21 and only paid 52000 lmfao . I hope these car manufacturers go tits up
