Ok it,s time to buy rims and tires for my 66 step side. The drop on the truck is 4.5x6 I want it low but not to low i,m thinking about a 29" height because I,m runing a 3.43 gear maybe a 18" rim. It would help if I could get you guy,s to post your pictures and info.
Thanks

I put air ride on the rear of my truck just so I could adjust the rear height (coil spring suspension) I have 6 cyclinder front springs and have 235/70/15 on it now, here is how it sits.......adjusted level:
