Haven't been on here in a while, so I didn't see your question until today...2/4 and IMO rides pretty good..Have a little rubbing on sharp turns, but a smaller profile tire will take care of that...

update. Found a white hood, grill emblem and upper plastic valance. Lil by lil puttin it back together. Next on list is a regular chrome rear bumper,oem door mirrors and side door and bed trim. Does anyone know the original tire size on a 2001 silverado single cab shortbed? is it 235/75? I have 255/70 on them right now but I dont like wide tires. Thinkin 235/70/16 because of clearance and also right now my truck rubs when i turn sharp.

Palf70Step 03-08-2014 10:26 PM

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!
 
Correct 235/75 is standard tire size (on 6" rim) 255/70 came as an option normally on the aluminum cast wheels(7").

thank you sir, and no i have never had abs issues with the different sized tires :chevy:

grumpyolddog 05-25-2014 10:45 PM

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!
 
I'm running 275r45/20 front and back thinkin about going tall on the back. What tire sizes are you running?

twisted1 05-26-2014 10:46 AM

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!
 
275/60/17 on the rear and 235/60/17 on the front

i would do a 315/35/20, but you will likely need a 10" wide wheel for that........you will need at least a 9-9.5 to go any larger than what you have and look right......just my opinion

grumpyolddog 05-26-2014 01:13 PM

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!
 
http://133.JPGhttp://032jpgHere it is with 275-45r20's all the way around with it lowered I cannot run a bigger tire on front but I might try a taller tire on the rear for the same look you have. The front is lowered with springs I like the look but the ride is not so good, but with my trailer on the back bumper the ride is great. I think I need to do more camping.

Mine again. Bought it lowered last Nov. It rides okay until I hit bumps and then the differenatial hits bed and tires rub. Needs to be airbagged so I can have best of both worlds. I love this truck though. Hope to have it forever.

Nice!!! Wish mine had all the factory trim and mirrors. PERFECT TRUCK!:chevy:

cdrummer316 01-31-2015 02:34 PM

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!
 
Thanks. I've actually considered removing the factory trim and replacing the mirrors with black front instead of the chrome front.
