When it comes to your 2014, 2015, 2016 Chevrolet Silverado or GMC Sierra 1500 there are quite a few options for a more aggressive look. One of the best ways to add an aggressive look to the already beefy styling of these trucks is to add some bigger tires. From the factory, the Silverado and Sierra come with a staggered stance, where the rear of the truck is higher than the front. This limits the tire size you can add to the front of the truck without experiencing tire rub on the inner fenders and suspension components. Adding a strut spacer kit for your GMT901, GMT902, GMT910, GMT911, GMT912, GMT926, GMT936, GMT946 is a great way to raise the truck enough to clear bigger tires, increase the off road potential of the truck and improve the look – all without spending a tremendous amount of money and maintaining the factory suspension characteristics. Below, we’ve listed some of our favorite leveling kits for the 2014-2016 Silverado GMTK2XX and 2014-2016 GMC Sierra.

2014, 2015, 2016 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra Leveling Kits by Icon
Icon Vehicle Dynamics offers a more advanced style of leveling kit. Icon’s kit is a standard coilover kit. The coilover kit replaces the stock strut unit with an adjustable coilover unit. This unit is designed to allow you to adjust you ride height from the stock height to an additional 2 inches of ride height with keeping the same stock control arms. This will allow you to clear 33 inch tires at the 2 inch adjustment. The advantage to getting a coilover is getting a drastically improved suspension, both off-road and on-road use. Icon also offers an extended travel coilover that can work with aftermarket control arms to give you an extra inch of adjustment and clearance.
