dont get me wrong i would love a 6" lift... But i work out of my truck and my dog would hate me.. He wouldnt be able to jump in it anymore.. But I'm glad to help.. this was the point of the vid
Thanks bro. Just bought the same truck but mine is a LTZ with the chrome accents. It already has black 22 inch rims on it but I may change to the 24s with a 33 x 12.5 tire. Great video
Love the reference you made about affording the gas 😂. I have a 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 6.2L and fixing to do the same setup. I'm not a red truck fan, but yours definitely looks badass man, love it. Thanks for the review
Luis Melchor yeah right, those are complete terrible cars. They aren’t even trucks! They’re useless. TOYOTA is where it’s at. TOYOTA is what you need to buy, that’s a good truck there. Switch now, because I get so angry when someone else personally likes silverados.
Zander33 Linus quite possible the dumbest thing I've read on here. I used to have a 2008 Tacoma that I bought new and I now have a 2014 Silverado and wouldn't trade it for the world. I love it. It has more power and room than a Tacoma. When you grow up you might reconsider getting a big boy truck. Tacomas are for kids
I'm going to go from 35 to 33 s to get better mileage , road handling, response. Keep 35 for mountains. put floor jack switch them out . V ! 2 tire Man Jam .
I talked to rancho and they said that set of ranchos they don’t recommend on the z71 trucks bc they came with skid plate. Does the truck ride better than stock?
dlawson Lawson I wouldn’t do a level kit if you’re towing that much. I had squat towing a 2-3000 lb trailer. I would do a full lift if I was towing heavy.
Nice setup man. I have 2015 Z71. Got it leveled as well. Also have tires similar to yours. Spaced them out 2 inches. Really like your exhaust, sounds boss. Fffffire it up!
Wolfbyte World yeah right, those are complete terrible cars. They aren’t even trucks! They’re useless. TOYOTA is where it’s at. TOYOTA is what you need to buy, that’s a good truck there. Switch now, because I get so angry when someone else personally likes silverados.
Zander33 Linus Toyota?? Are you gay or what? I have 2 more Silverado’ s in my driveway. Both run and look great. One has over 340k on it, all original. 4x4, lifted, and fat tires. Exhaust, spacers, cold air intake. I skull 💀 fuk toyotas
I just bought the same color/year truck except mine has the black racin strips down the sides makes it go faster than the normal red hot. 😆. Jk the truck looks super sweet, 👌that's what I'm gonna go for looks wise but I want to get black and red rims and get some aftermarket led/fiber tail lights smoked out, I think that'll be good for at least 4 horses🐎.
Hey man I have a 2014 looks just like yours, you think I could fit 22s×9 or 10, and 33"×10-12, with 2.5 leveling kit, -24 offset you think I would have to do trimming ? Or would it fit with minor rubbing
I have the same truck 2016 Z71, red. I have a Corsa DB exhaust. What did you pay for tires and rims? I am looking to put a cold air intake and programer in. Smoked rear taillights too.
One more thing man. Your truck looks great, but people are saying that a level kit will mess up your ball joints and suspension. Have you had any wear and tear from your level kit?
Thanks. I’ve put on 50,000 miles so far without an issue. It’s been 2 years. I’ve taken long 7 hour road trips and always had weight in the back and I sometimes tow. I think if you decide to do anything, don’t go the cheap route. It ends up costing you more in the end. Spend the money on the quality parts and you should be ok.
Clean truck sir! How did you go about de-badging the stock and applying the aftermarket? Any recommendations? I am looking to that to mine in the next couple of days, same Z71 badges. Thanks in advance
Shanon Lopaka Ilar-Arnold thanks so much. I used a hair dryer on the emblems to heat up the stock glue. Then used a fishing line to go behind it and go back and forth till it comes off. Then use a drill and a 3m rubber wheel to remove the stickers and glue. Good luck.
How are the tires in snow? I ordered the same setup as you and can’t wait but it’s snows a little in Ohio so I am hoping I am not ice skating this winter. Beautiful truck bro.
Commercial Heating thanks. They were great. I’m in the Chicago burbs so we probably get the same snow. They lasted 70k miles and I never had any issues with them.
Graham Kaszas does your truck rub with 285/55R20 tires on your Silverado? I too, have a 2" Level kit and was wondering if you run or scrub on your truck? Thanks
@@dern881 I understand, some people who get level kits get longer shocks to make up for the height difference. It didn't make sense to me so that's why I asked. But thank you for your concern
unrivaled27 they were great. I ran them 60,000 miles and got the same tire. I live in Chicago area so I get winters and rain. But I also have 4 wheel drive so snow was no issue.
nice truck. this is sort of a piggy back off a previously asked question but how did you go about installing the aftermarket z71 badge after removing the stock badges. please be as detailed as possible. what type of glue (if any) did you use. thanks.
Order the aftermarket emblems from eBay. They come with glue on them. First blue tape the Silverado emblem on the door. Remove them. Stick the old ones on
3 City Remodeling awesome. I had a similar kit from rough country and it destroyed the front suspension on the truck that’s why I was asking. Sharp looking rig ya got
yeah right, those are complete terrible cars. They aren’t even trucks! They’re useless. TOYOTA is where it’s at. TOYOTA is what you need to buy, that’s a good truck there. Switch now, because I get so angry when someone else personally likes silverados.
Blue Collar they’re fine. Not the best. But if you know how to drive they’re fine. Not great in the rain either. But I’m at 50,000 miles on these tires and probably have another 10,000 to go. I will be getting them again.
I put the Rancho ready lift or quick lift whatever it's called on mine. It had the rough country blocks when I bought it. The level was easy to install. Took me about an hour and a half. I put the Rancho 9000s on the back also. I will say I'm sitting completely level now so much so I'm gonna put 1" blocks in the back to get a little more rake. If I put anything in the bed I will have to adjust the shocks to 9 and hope I don't squat. I'm thinking about going with 22x10s and putting 285 45 on the truck. I shouldn't rub since I have so much clearance with the level and it already has 275 60/20s on it. A little wider and about as tall as current. I have a 14 sierra.
will borio could you send me a link or where you bought the rancho readylift kit and how has it been did it level out ivebeen looking into it really intrested
The level kit was about $150 to install. The cutting took place when they installed the bigger wheels. The labor cost was included in the $2300 wheel cost.
Yo bra boy! Your mods are killing it cold boy! She's sexy as a mofo! I'd be eaten burgers and chillin on the hood in my leather jacket at sonic! Silveraydoe(her)! All jokes aside clean good job main!
Ya thanks... I was looking at my truck the past 2 years and really thought that.. your comment has inspired me to do just that.. thanks so much.. eye opening comment.. I'm gonna quit what I'm doing right now and go rip them off.. you want them? Anything you want bud.
Your truck convinced me to get a leveling kit and 33s instead of a lift and 35s for my high country.
dont get me wrong i would love a 6" lift... But i work out of my truck and my dog would hate me.. He wouldnt be able to jump in it anymore.. But I'm glad to help.. this was the point of the vid
I just hate the fact they have to cut shit on the truck. Are those 20x10 -24 Or 20x12 -44?
20x10 -24
Depending on wheel and tire setup level trucks look better than jacked up lifted truck. Imo.
kev mar I love a lifted truck. It would be a pain in the dick with my dog and getting tools in and out everyday though.
Agreed
Facts
Small z71 badge where the LT was would look good. I did that to mine. I went red and black as my truck is white. Nice truck!
"If you can afford tires, you can afford gas, fuck it!" Lmao
Love this dudes attitude! If you can afford gas then F@#$ IT! LMAO
Thanks bro. Just bought the same truck but mine is a LTZ with the chrome accents. It already has black 22 inch rims on it but I may change to the 24s with a 33 x 12.5 tire. Great video
"Nobody fuckin' sees it anyway..Shut'R On!" LOL
Love the reference you made about affording the gas 😂. I have a 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 6.2L and fixing to do the same setup. I'm not a red truck fan, but yours definitely looks badass man, love it. Thanks for the review
Everything looks and sounds great!!
I love this dude’s sense of humor LMAO!
Twenty sixteen...silver-ray-doe! 😂😂😂😂

Truck looks sweet bro I’m about to do this set up on my 2016 midnight edition.
dlawson Lawson thanks man. I just traded it in for a 2020 baby duramax. I love these damn silveraydos
What sizes tire and wheel ?
Cool bro like the z71 placement
banga8080 hey thanks. Just put them where Silverado was originally
I love the truck and the video but you had me 😂 when I heard that second song come on. I heard that watching porn hub 😂
Lmfao
I'm going to go from 35 to 33 s to get better mileage , road handling, response. Keep 35 for mountains. put floor jack switch them out . V ! 2 tire Man Jam .
I talked to rancho and they said that set of ranchos they don’t recommend on the z71 trucks bc they came with skid plate. Does the truck ride better than stock?
Loving that look👌🏽😁
Do you know if this set up reduces your towing capabilities any? I pull a 28ft toy hauler about 7500lbs loaded so can’t afford to loose any towing
dlawson Lawson I wouldn’t do a level kit if you’re towing that much. I had squat towing a 2-3000 lb trailer. I would do a full lift if I was towing heavy.
I have f150 2016. what would be the perfect tire size for my truck
Nice setup man. I have 2015 Z71. Got it leveled as well. Also have tires similar to yours. Spaced them out 2 inches. Really like your exhaust, sounds boss. Fffffire it up!

Looks clean G
Looks good!!!!
Damn good looking truck bro
You’re truck looks good
thanks
I got rid of the chrome on the front bumper area. I had mine wrapped with a matte black vinyl. It looks alot better.
Love it!!!
nice truck
David Hayes thanks
HE SAID " SO FUCK IT"!!
Hey man I have a 2014 looks just like yours, you think I could fit 22s×9 or 10, and 33"×10-12, with 2.5 leveling kit,
-24 offset you think I would have to do trimming ? Or would it fit with minor rubbing
Victor Ortega I would think you would have to trim the inside of the front wheel well
I have the same truck 2016 Z71, red. I have a Corsa DB exhaust. What did you pay for tires and rims? I am looking to put a cold air intake and programer in. Smoked rear taillights too.
Lance Brown tires and rim installed with sensors cost about $2400. Good luck with your truck!! Sounds cool as fuck.
Looks Good man
Just C Z71 thanks bud
Those look like 20x10’s
Blake _ they are. I fucked up. Tires are 12”
Silver raid oh. Wow ok
One more thing man. Your truck looks great, but people are saying that a level kit will mess up your ball joints and suspension. Have you had any wear and tear from your level kit?

I have the 2.5 out about 20k miles and have not had any issues.
20x12 on 33s?
Do u know all the specs everything to the wheels and tires
Clean truck sir! How did you go about de-badging the stock and applying the aftermarket? Any recommendations? I am looking to that to mine in the next couple of days, same Z71 badges. Thanks in advance
Shanon Lopaka Ilar-Arnold thanks so much. I used a hair dryer on the emblems to heat up the stock glue. Then used a fishing line to go behind it and go back and forth till it comes off. Then use a drill and a 3m rubber wheel to remove the stickers and glue. Good luck.
I like the way that looks , but I'm real hesitant to bash the fender well to make them fit .
What did you use to remove the excess residue from debunking the emblems ?
a 3m rubber disk and a drill... Then alcohol
How are the tires in snow? I ordered the same setup as you and can’t wait but it’s snows a little in Ohio so I am hoping I am not ice skating this winter. Beautiful truck bro.
Commercial Heating thanks. They were great. I’m in the Chicago burbs so we probably get the same snow. They lasted 70k miles and I never had any issues with them.
Thanks for the reply buddy, are you running the same setup still?
Commercial Heating nope. I traded that it and got a 20 Silverado.
Any rub on the upper control arm? I have a 285 55 20 20x9 with a 2 inch lip 2.25 level
Graham Kaszas none at all
Graham Kaszas does your truck rub with 285/55R20 tires on your Silverado? I too, have a 2" Level kit and was wondering if you run or scrub on your truck? Thanks
What kind of leveling kit do you have on your truck?
Benjamin Larios
www.readylift.com/2-25-front-leveling-kit-gm-full-size-truck-suv-1500-ld-6-lug-2007-2018.html
Did you not do the rear block kit?
Did this setup rub?
What tires are these?
Yee yee
if you can afford tires and shit you can afford gas,,,,,lmao
U shoulda got those havocs
you should be a nice guy and buy them for me... Since you want me to have them so bad
Did you have to get new shocks when you leveled your truck?
ANTHONY SOPRANO no I did not. It’s been more than a year and still no issues.
ANTHONY SOPRANO a level is a spacer on strut so it doesn't change the way shocks work.
@@dern881 I understand, some people who get level kits get longer shocks to make up for the height difference. It didn't make sense to me so that's why I asked. But thank you for your concern
what kind of leveling kit did you used? and how many inches did you lifted it
Ready lift 2.25"
I have the same truck and I'm thinking bout doing some mods. how did the 20x12 fit in the front, does it rubs any
Brandon Chairez everything is explained in the video
How are those tires in rain and snow? Or do you swap them out?
unrivaled27 they were great. I ran them 60,000 miles and got the same tire. I live in Chicago area so I get winters and rain. But I also have 4 wheel drive so snow was no issue.
Great looking ride btw. Plan on getting those same wheels.
unrivaled27 I got the Nitto trail grapplers instead. They were $300 cheaper. They don’t look as good as the mudders but they’re still awesome.
nice truck. this is sort of a piggy back off a previously asked question but how did you go about installing the aftermarket z71 badge after removing the stock badges. please be as detailed as possible. what type of glue (if any) did you use. thanks.
Order the aftermarket emblems from eBay. They come with glue on them. First blue tape the Silverado emblem on the door. Remove them. Stick the old ones on
Did you have to "trim" anything up front??
Joey P yes. It's in the video
Do you have any issues with it. Ball joints, cv axels anything like that.
Caleb Matthews none at all. Everything’s fantastic still and still runs great. I’ve put 30k miles on.
3 City Remodeling awesome. I had a similar kit from rough country and it destroyed the front suspension on the truck that’s why I was asking. Sharp looking rig ya got
Caleb Matthews ya I e heard bad things about rough country. I guess you get what ya pay for.
3 City Remodeling yuup learned my lesson. Thanks for the reply back
I used the Bilstein 5100s to level mine . Came out perfect . No issues with suspension geometry .
those wheels are 20x10s bro. Even with the nor cal mod it would be nearly impossible to run 20x12s
Adrian Cardenas yes. They are 20x10s. The tires are 12.5"
20x12s -44 will fit on a leveled Chevy my guy
Adrian Cardenas they will fit with a 3.5 level in the front but it’s a little cutting..The 20x10 look really good
I think these wheels are 20x10 -24 offset , am i wrong? It looks pretty perfect,
you are correct
that is a sexy ass truck man.
Big Ben Thiessen thanks!!
yeah right, those are complete terrible cars. They aren’t even trucks! They’re useless. TOYOTA is where it’s at. TOYOTA is what you need to buy, that’s a good truck there. Switch now, because I get so angry when someone else personally likes silverados.
How do the tires work in the snow and ice
Blue Collar they’re fine. Not the best. But if you know how to drive they’re fine. Not great in the rain either. But I’m at 50,000 miles on these tires and probably have another 10,000 to go. I will be getting them again.
Does the truck drone on the highway when it goes in v4 mode ?
sergio rios not at all. It's not obnoxiously loud inside either. You can definitely there's exhaust on it.
What kind of running boards are those?
Arthur Maclang stock
Nice 20x10 man. You did the install level kit yourself?
SHAYNE MURPHY I did not do the install no.
I put the Rancho ready lift or quick lift whatever it's called on mine. It had the rough country blocks when I bought it. The level was easy to install. Took me about an hour and a half.

will borio could you send me a link or where you bought the rancho readylift kit and how has it been did it level out ivebeen looking into it really intrested
If you can afford tires and shit then you can afford gas lol
How much did the level cost with them having to cut? Just the labor costs
The level kit was about $150 to install. The cutting took place when they installed the bigger wheels. The labor cost was included in the $2300 wheel cost.
Did u cut your bumper?
no need
Sounds like a V4
Exhaust sound doesn’t match the truck, kinda sounds bad imo
Pretty sure those wheels r a 20x10
Rolando Martinez sure are man. I fucked up. 🤷♂️
Where did you get the z71 badges?
irvin chavez from on the line. The internet.
What type of offset
-24
-24 or -44 offset?
Brandin Lafleur -24
Z71 "edition" 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Chevy "sign" 😂🤣😂🤣😂
This shit still makes me laugh
is that a 10 inch or a 9 inch wide rim
Michael pimentel. They are 10"
I thought you said 12" wide
Jason Hawkins tires are 12.5. 20x10 rim. Maybe I fucked up??
U got a flow master?
no.... I say in the video what I got
295 55 20 or 285?
Rust Hemi 295
Are you tires 33s 12.5 or 295-60
Benjamin Larios 295 55 r20
Silverehdo! 😂
Yo bra boy! Your mods are killing it cold boy! She's sexy as a mofo! I'd be eaten burgers and chillin on the hood in my leather jacket at sonic! Silveraydoe(her)! All jokes aside clean good job main!

Ohm Slice. Truck porn

KOLARIK CONSTRUCTION thanks for the reply! Looks good on your truck. I like your set up. I might do something similar with mine.
