Need pics of steelies and rallies on 4-6 drop!

Im going to be dropping my truck 4-6 and cant decide if i want to go with rallies or steelies. I am definitely going with 15x8f and 15x10r. I would like to know back spacing and tire size also.

Re: Need pics of steelies and rallies on 4-6 drop!

This is about 5" front and rear before I bagged it. 15x8 factory steel wheels off a 1971 4x4 blazer I think it was. Baby moon caps and 2" trim rings.

Re: Need pics of steelies and rallies on 4-6 drop!

Hey there. I’m looking to make a wheel and tire change on my truck and While doing some research I came across this post from four years ago. Great looking truck!!

Here’s a shot of what mine currently has.
