Another quick hijack, I have a 16 z71 and am in need of new tires soon. What is the biggest I can go without doing a level?

Chevy or GMC?

I just got some Hankook Dynapro MT's for my truck and they're really nice and not overly loud on the highway.

I'm waiting for the Bilstein 5100 to come out for my truck.. 2019 Sierra

Until then I'll be putting a 2" RC level and 295/60/20 Ridge Grapplers

Has anyone ran 5100s before? The stock Z71 suspension rides like shite. How do the 5100s tide?

Can confirm 33s fit with no level. That’s what mine has from dealership

Thank you. Would that be the same if you have the newer z71 Tahoe’s/Suburbans?

Not entirely sure. Mine is 2019 and I think they modified the wheel well so I can’t speak on anything other than the 19s

When I purchased the truck it had them on already so I can’t help you there.

If I was a betting man I’d say it does improve a good bit. Everyone I’ve seen who has them has no complaints.
