I have a question for you...... You said in your post that you have shackles and auto level bags..... How much lower is yours than stock? Did you do anything to the fronts? I love the way your truck sits and am trying to get something very close to that. Thanks!

I have the belltech lowering shackles in the rear. And then i just put helper bags on it (autolevel) so that it does not sag when towing. I have a 20" enclosed and a open trailer I tow and I hate sag! looks horrible driving down the road. Nothing is done to the front at all.

Did you go 2" lower or did you pull the "spacer block" to make it 3" lower in the rear?

Not in the silverado bolt pattern. The only ones in 6 x 5.5 are 22".

It would only be a guess, but it looks like there's <5" of sidewall, and assuming it's a 22" tire, and according to Nitto's website, I'd guess a 40 aspect ratio, so possibly:

265/40
275/40
275/45
285/40

Doesn't look like a 285 tire IMO, so I'd probably guess one of the first two sizes.

Here is my first attempt at lowering in photoshop so I hope I don't get flamed.

I have a 2/3 drop on my 08 Sierra Denali and am thinking of getting a set of black Trail Blazer SS wheels but I'm not sure what size tires to get. I already have a little rubbing with the 275/55-20 stock wheels so I think I'm leaning towards 275/45-22. I would love to go with 305/40-22 but I think they will be too wide.

im running 305/40R22's on my 4/6 dropped 08 sierra, it does rub when you turn the wheel all the way. Id say the 285/40 or 285/35 would be great on it. Im still debating myself if which I should go with.


man, those TBSS wheels look sweet....
