So my truck has some rake with the PO having lowered the front about 4". Today I got to see what it would look like with the rear done about 6". Maybe this is how they did mock-ups before photoshop? 2000lbs of cobblestones = 6" drop

I like it.
But perhaps take out a few more stones. :)
Otherwise, drive it as is. :)

Thanks. I like the 18's better also. The fronts are 18x8 with 4.5 inch BS. The rears are 18x9.5 with 5.5 BS

I was going to go with 20's but I'm starting to rethink that now with how bad our roads are here in PA. 18's still look nice and allow you to have a taller side wall on the tires.

That was my thinking also. I went with 235/60/18 fronts and 255/55/18 rear.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 
Is that 7 up front or 6.5 up front? Either way how do you drive down the rode without dragging your lower control arms on everything?

This shell belongs to a friend of mine and it matches it pretty good, but last week I picked up a nice "Gem Top" shell. :chevy:
