Hey,
New guy here, just wanted to finally check in. I have been reading through the threads for a few weeks, and really appreciate the wealth of knowledge, and member's willingness to share info. Even after doing a LOT of reading over the internet prior to purchase, there is still a learning curve. This site is most helpful.
My current vehicle (replacement for old Silverado) is a 2014 quad cab express, 1500, 5.7, 4x4, 6 spd. 3.55. Seems pretty decent so far, wanted to find one with limited slip, but this met most of my requirements, so hopefully it will do what I need to do.
My dilemma right now is shopping for a used 20" wheel so I can carry a 2nd full-size spare. After lowering and raising the OEM spare, I can see I will need a faster way to change a tire. Not to mention, the so-called full-size spare is actually undersize (slightly) compared to the stock 275 60R 20 tires. This might be ok across town, but I may need to drive 100 miles to get a tire fixed, and don't want that uneven wear on the differential.
Thanks again, and appreciate the helpful comments.
