Looking for pictures of TB with 35s on stock 20 inch wheels

Got the truck Tuesday. Was at the tire store on Thursday. 35x11.5x20 Ridge Grapplers on stock wheels. No modifications no rubbing. Couldn't be happier with the look and ride quality. I thought about a leveling kit but I don't want to mess with perfection just yet, maybe down the road. This is the size this truck should have come with. View attachment 1990
No lift kit? Tire doesn’t touch the Upper Control Arm? I would love to see more pictures!

I have since installed the RL 2" and 1.5" spacers to clear the UCA. I have some rubbing at full lockout. I am installing the Blisten 5100s soon to get another 1/2".
 
The mileage dropped about 2-3 mpg. Then after I installed the 2" ready lift kit it really took a drop. I now only get about 15 mpg on the highway. But if you want a 6.2L lifted truck with big tires you can't expect good gas mileage.
Did you stack the 2” ready lift on top of factory 2”? Or remove old lift and replaced with that 2” Readylift?
 
Added the RL 2.0 to stock trail boss suspension. It raised it up another 1 3/4" from the existing stock 2" lift. It rides perfect but sometime in the future, I am going to get rid of the additional spacers from RL while keeping the UCA that came with the kit. I am going to add Blistins 5100s to give me the lift. I really don't like the idea of adding more spacers.

I am doing something similar. Have Kings on order. Will keep the RL UCA but use the Kings to eliminate the front spacer.
 
My next door neighbor has that setup and it seems the best scenario. I wish I had waited and done the same thing. Send me a link to the kit you ordered.

So at stock no adds, the 35x11.5x20s touched components of UCA or just mud flap? I'm about to be at 24k miles on the stock tires on my 21' and was looking at installing these without changes.

Mine rubbed on the liner at the mud flap bracket. I had .5” spacer to keep it off UCA then later switched to 1.5” spacer for looks. You have to remove the bracket then zip tie the liner back.

That reduction in fuel economy is probably why GM delivers TB's on 32's. The guberment employees mandate fuel economy for ... well I don't what to be abrasive or divisive. Let's just say for questionable reasons.
