2024 Platinum - Wheels and Tire setup

[Will_NY]

Anyone get around to level and throw on new wheels and tires on a 2024 Platinum yet? I've haven't seen any posts on this trim level. Curious how it looks with 34's or 35's.

There’s a bunch in Facebook groups! They seem to clear up to 35/12.5s on factory wheels with a 2.5” level!

I’m glad you started this thread. I have a 2024 Platinum 703a package and was really curious about this as well. I was concerned about the loss of all the tech goodies that came with this truck like Bluecruise, onboard scales, auto-leveling headlights, the CCD system, and the like. I did a lot of reading on this site, as well as talk to my local accessory guy, and got comfortable with moving forward. However, not jumping in the deep end, I decided to start with just leveling and testing the effect first with stock tires and wheels (275/50R22). The level kit was a ReadyLift 2.0" kit and the results were very consistent: the front went from +/- 37.5” to 39.5” and the rear remained generally the same at about 40” (so close to level). SMFC Performance reprogrammed the truck for calibration with the kit. I had driven the truck prior to the kit for about 2,500 miles and have put another 1,400 or so on the truck after the kit was installed. Everything appears to be working just fine after the install with stock wheels and tires: Bluecruise, onboard scales, CCD system seems the same, and headlights appear correct - mainly gauging by not having anyone flash me ?. So, with this verified, I have ordered 18” wheels with a +18 offset and 295/70R18 Nitto Recon Grappler tires. The goal is to have a setup that keeps the crash bars and not sling a bunch or rocks down the side of the truck - SMFC thinks this will be accomplished. Hoping for the best and wish you luck on your pursuit.

I think the biggest hold back is the CCD suspension . Kind of limits what you can do. Perhaps you can forscan it off or something but otherwise it’s just lift pucks for the front end.

Getting back to you with pictures of my phased approach. The first one is stock, the second is leveled as mentioned above with the stock wheels and tires, and the last ones are with the new wheels and tires as mentioned above. (I’m new to posting, so let me know if you can’t open the photos). I haven’t test BC yet, but will thi

Steve I love the new wheels. Mind sharing the Details on them?

Thanks Matt. The wheels are KMC Impact Forged Monoblock (KM 447). They are 18” x 9” and have a +18 offset. They also come with a zero offset if you want a little poke. I’ve attached a few more photos to give you a different perspective than the garage comparison shots.

Couple more.

Couple more.

+18 looks great just aggressive enough.
