Chevy Colorado WT | 33 Inch Tires On a Work Truck 

Hey there, Jim. Thanks for taking the time to comment! Yeah, I have been in the sand at the Gulf of Mexico and in some mud elsewhere. I am not saying I can't get stuck, but I am impressed with the traction I got in those scenarios.

Thanks, Moegly. I did talk about the bumper a little bit in this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qFp94ZnD4Wg.html But yeah, never dedicated a video for the front bumper. The fender trimming turned out really well. I wanted to get the fatter GM fender flares, nut I am glad I got the ones that are options for the WT and LT trims.

Hi 15Colorado. Not sure which parts, exactly, you need for your truck, but I show some part numbers for many of the plastic panels in my truck in a couple videos. Maybe you can find what you need using my part numbers in an online search. In this video here, I remove the rear plastic panel. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-n3mRJS50uII.html If you scroll through, you should be able to see the closeup shots of the numbers.

@@MarioWorkedOnIt its where the rear seats bolt to below the window. On gmpartsdirect its called blank cover.

Ok, yeah. I definitely have that part in the video linked, but it sounds like you already know the part number. Kinda pricey, but what do you do!

Hey there, AtomicToastCat. Thanks for sharing your numbers. What kind of truck do you have? IIRC, the ZR2 and Z71 package on the 2nd gen Colorado has slightly different geometry on the front axle as well as a taller ride height when compared to the LT and WT trim levels. Just going from memory though.

@@MarioWorkedOnIt it is a 2016 gmc canyon sle with the v6 and extended cab the twin to your truck but with a upgraded interior did come with 17 inch standard wheels and 255 65 70 17s

@AtomicToastCat Yeah, I believe the SLE and WT are the same when it comes to the chassis and suspension. The ReadyLift kit I used advertises up to a 32.5x11.50" tire on up to +18 offset wheels (285/70-17) without cutting. Your tire should be taller than mine, yours at 33.8" and mine at 33.1". You never know what will work until you actually try it out!

@@MarioWorkedOnIt do you think 33s 10.5 18 inch stock rims on my 22 wt will clear with a 3.5 lift

Hey there, Billy. Yeah, the WT now comes stock with 17" steel wheels and you can get 18" wheels as a factory option.

Billy, ReadyLift has a 3.5" SST LIFT KIT that comes with new upper control arms. It probably doesn't matter too much which brand kit, but ReadyLift advertises 285/70R17 tires working without any trimming. In a perfect world, 285/65R18 tires would be a comparable tire size. These would technically be 33's but are almost a full inch shorter than the tires I have and I needed to trim the fenders. Botom line, you won't know until you put the tire on.

@@MarioWorkedOnIt ok kool 1/2 inch I can live with thank you

@@MarioWorkedOnIt do you have a lift

Hi, Billy. Yes I have the Readylift SST 3.5. If you visit their site, they explain what parts are involved. They also have a section regarding tire fitment. Here is a link www.readylift.com/3-5-sst-lift-kit-colorado-canyon-2015-2022.html

Hey there, sp192x. The speedo is about 4 MPH off. At about 64 MPH it indicates 61. At 30 MPH it is off by about 1 MPH. I depend on my Garmin RV890 as a speedometer. The gearing is borderline. It bothers me enough that if I had the time and the money, I would change it. Granted, I am dealing with a lot of weight towing and hauling all my stuff around. In order to do it right, I feel you would have to get a tune (like a Trifecta). It does OK and I am living with it. The cons I have noticed are, the cruise control is a little less responsive, I never see 8th gear while towing, descending entire mountains on trails requires 4 Low or my brakes overheat. Not sure how much gearing would change the brakes, but thought I would mention it.

@@MarioWorkedOnIt I would look into doing 4:11. I want 33 and don't tow but I would look at the gear change. Mpg wouldn't be horrible as you would use high gear again. Thanks for the content. I also like the bumper. Steve

Yeah, it's not like I haven't thought about it long and hard. It's just that I am able to do what I need to do. The gearing isn't getting in the way of that. As for the swaybar thing, I need to air down and be shoving the wheel up in there. A different rim might be the answer there but it has not hampered my day. So I can tow up and down mountain passes and across the country, etc.. We will see. Let me get the current list of projects out of the way, first, LOL. Take care Steve!

Hello there, Terrell. The front bumper is a Relentless Fabrication Hybrid bumper for the 2015-2020 Colorado Bison or Z71.

Hey there, Jim. Yes, it is 4X4

LOL, I know. I feel like a slacker. I'm still a ways from any trails. I'm kinda hunkered here for a few while the ice and snow passes by.
