Re: new 5.5-7.5 drop pics

Very nice....looks IDENTICAL to my drop/tire size. I run 215 70 on the front, 275 60 on the back, same slam (5.5/7.5) with 15x8 and 15x7 rallies. No rubbing issues anywhere.

Re: new 5.5-7.5 drop pics

Looks perfect. Wonder if that drop would clear my 255/40r20 and 295/40r20. Would love to sit that low

Re: new 5.5-7.5 drop pics

Perfect stance & great looking truck! Can you post up the tire sizes? Also, how much room do you have between the top of the front tire and the inner fender (if you are running inners)? How much travel do you have in the back from axle to c-notch?

Thanks, I will get the tire sizes for you. I have freshly powder coated inner fenders in my truck with no rubbing issues. Rear has about 6" of Clerance I will measure that too.

Re: new 5.5-7.5 drop pics

Really Nice! Looks great! I have actually set mine up with a 6-8 drop. Hmm might be a little to much. Do you know how much clearance you have between you frame and the ground? Thanks

Man I still love this truck!

A nice touch on the rear...those wide chrome rings give the wheels a nice "lip"
