Re: show me your 73-87 lowered/bagged c10's

Pro Performance, I was wondering about your project truck. the wheels and tires, if you dont mind, what are the specs? (backspace too?) i'd like to buy a set of the showwheels "streeter" design...any recommendation of an exact combo that will work with stock inner fenders and stock rear tubs. my 82 has about a 4/6 drop. current wheels are 15x8 and tires are 255/50-15 all around with 5" backspace. i'd like to go with 20's all around. like 20 x 8.5 front and 20 x 10 rear... OR 18 x 7 front and 18 x 10 rear. whatcha think?

Thanks. I am using the Streeters (20x8.5 / 20x10) with a 315/35/20 on the rear and 255/35/20 up front.

The Streeters are available in those 20" sizes, and 18x8 / 18x9's. We have a 10% sale running right now on the polished versions. PM Sent with more information.

Those are GMT-400 roof market lamps. Roughly 88-02. I just put a set of OEM amber ones on my '83. His mirrors are 90/91 Sububan/Blazer power mirrors, the head carried over into GMT-400 too, but those are unique to squares. Also, the window glass for those OEM apps is different, there is a blacked out portion to hide the mirror back.

Very nice on this one. I am in process of a similar build. What size drop do you have and wheel size? I like how those lay in there.

In the rear is a flip kit, and half a hanger kit (front half), combined about 10" drop, and in the front, drop spindles, and drop coils (with half a ring cut), total of about 7" drop. The wheels are 20x8.5 all around, with 2" spacers out back. Tires are Falken FK452 245/40R20 front, 255/45R20 rear. No rubbing issues at all, lock to lock, suspension travel to bump stops!
