StarsnBars, I appreciate the advice. I will probably do the Monroes on the back aswell scince I do some hauling to. Thanks for the reply, I ended up going with the 295's because of your pics.

Bowtieman. I hope you read the entire post.
I did have to do minor metal trimming and some inner wheelwell liner to fit the front. Just wanted to give you a heads up.

I had following your post's had to do the same trimming. All the info you provided was a huge help, it was nerve racking having to cut on a Brand New truck but once it was said and done it looks great. I'll post some pics soon, thanks again.

Any pics of what had to be trimmed? I Ordered a 3.5" "leveling kit" and I want these tires. What has to be trimmed? As previous posters have said, it's hard to think about cutting your truck.

What did you use? A grinder with a metal wheel?

I want this setup, I'm just nervous.

Btw, I have 2010 Sierra crew cab 1500 with stock 265/65/18.

Any input is appreciated.

You might be ok with that 3.5 lift. I only had a 2 inch level.
I used a Dremel tool with a grind wheel and made nice clean cuts.
Crawl under your truck and look up under the rear area of the front wheelwell. You will see a tab that connects the plastic liner. Undo the liner enough to gain access to the tab area . That tab and about a inch or so of metal is what I trimmed off. If you turn the wheel you will see just the area where its the closest. Once its trimmed fit the liner back down and use a small hammer to tap a lip up to hold the liner in place. Plyers will help making a small lip. I did trim about a 1/4 inch of the bottom liner to avoid buckleing .
Just take your time and only cut what you need to .
P.M. Me for any questions. This post is pretty general . Good luck,,

Thanks. The kit is due in on Wed, my tires on Friday so it's a project for next weekend.

Execellent. You wont be sorry. My pics didnt do justice to the look those tires did to the truck. Looking forward to seeing lots of pics when you get it done. Its going to be a long week waiting for your goodies,,
If you have any questions PM me , I will be able to give you more info .

I will have to trim just like I was warned about. I will get to that later or tomorrow since I can't get an alignment until Thursday. I'm so happy with how this turned out.

The last photo is next to a stock 09 Silverado for comparison.

Photos seem to be cut off on the right side when I post them here for some reason.

I found this link on another forum. It explains how to gain 2" from the front fender well with only a minor trim and stock looking results. Haven't done mine yet but maybe this afternoon or tomorrow. http://www.duramaxforum.com/forum/nor-c ... -pics.html
