    They are 30.0x12.0R18 Mickey Thompson Sportsman S/R Radials all the way around....They are pretty soft but I don't think they are technically drag radials, they came with the wheels as part of the deal

    2011 Avalanche Build (Wrecked)

    looks like a nice find! How much did you get it for if you don't mind me asking? Even if the engine is toast you can get a complete 5.3 for $1000 and drop it in fairly easily...what are your plans for it? Just repair?

    It came with a 3.30" pulley, gonna order a 3.10" to start with, I would like to see 550+ RWHP on 93 octane but we will see... Already bought an upgraded Varimax high flow intercooler pump (it gets freaking hot here in the summer!)

    Help, yatesiepoo wants me to fly to cali from ny to buy a truck.

    @Miami-Dade 2014 was the last year before direct injection....the SUVs were a year behind the trucks so the 2014 SUVs all have Gen IV motors... @Galante I think the newer engines have been holding up well, the carbon build up on the valves on the Gen V motors has been way over blown...why not...
