Leveling Kit on T1XX 1500 – What Fits Without Rubbing

A leveling kit on the 2019+ T1XX Silverado/Sierra 1500 gives a level stance and opens up room for larger tires. Here’s what fits.

T1XX Front Suspension:
The T1XX 1500 uses a coilover/strut-based IFS with a strut tower on top. Leveling kits use a spacer on top of the strut to raise the front.

Best T1XX Leveling Kit:
Maxracing 2" Leveling Kit – Compatible with 2007–2026 Silverado/Sierra 1500 – Fits the T1XX platform. CNC-machined aluminum spacers. No alignment issues beyond what a standard front alignment addresses.

Tire Fitment After 2" Level:

17" Wheels:

  • 265/70R17: Fits cleanly with 2" level
  • 285/70R17: Fits on most T1XX builds with 2" level, minor trimming possible at full lock

18" Wheels:

  • 275/65R18 (stock LTZ): Works fine
  • 285/65R18: Fits with 2" level, common choice

20" Wheels:

  • 295/60R20 (stock High Country): Works
  • 305/55R20: Borderline with 2" level

Trail Boss / AT4 Note:
The Trail Boss and AT4 come with a factory 2" lift from the factory. These trims can accommodate larger tires without additional leveling.

Alignment Required:
Front alignment is required after any leveling kit installation. Budget $80–$120.

Shock Replacement:
The T1XX uses coilover-style shocks. A 2" level does not typically require shock replacement if they are under 75K miles.
