Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

I have a set of those wheels in black off of a police Tahoe..What size tires are those?
Is the wheel 7"?

Thanks

Looks great by the way..

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

To be honest im not 100% sure. There 15" off of a 454 ss. I checked out the Chevy website and it said they were 8.5, but im not for sure. I dig the black ones, I'll trade lol. I need to put my center caps on, it looks ten times better with them on, but I have to buy all new lugs for the cap covers to screw on, and the caps are about 2.50 a piece.

sorry im misread what you asked. The fronts are 275/60 and the back is 265/70. I think I may have mixed the up, I have a terrible memory.

That's funny..I like the chrome ones.
But I think I'm going to try the black with a black center cap(truck is silver)
I like the stance of your truck..How much is that lowered infront?

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

Not as low as what you may be looking for but...here the 2/4 drop I just did for comparison.
Front - 2" drop springs and Nitro drop shocks with energy suspension bushings. Rear - 4" with drop shackles and hangers. Wheels -15x8 Pacer rims with Firehawk Indy 500 275/60R15's

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

:c2: looks good!

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

This is my shop truck and dirt bike hauler.

Mechanicaly solid but the body is rusted out.
5.5/8 drop
215/70R15 fronts and 235/75R15 rears
Cut the front springs
Flip kit in the rear, removed overload and 2 other leafs and added air shocks.
Rides like a cadillac. The front is a little soft with the half ton springs. 3/4 ton springs would be better. Im going to eventually install some drop spindles, c-notch and bags, but Im in no hurry.

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

87 GMC Sierra with 15x8 rims and McGaughys 4/6 static drop with new shocks. Rides better than stock.

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

2/4 drop (springs and shackles) w/ 275/60/15 all around. I think I need to put OG springs back on and get 3" spindles.

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

Good lookin truck Ben.

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

Thanks!

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

Flip kit in the rear. 3" spindles and 1" coils in the front. All belltech.
15 x7 factory alloys with 235/75/15s.
The front needs to come down some more.

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

back when it was still ridin high. i think this was at the time a 2/4 drop ? its been a while.

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

currently a work in progress. not on 15s but its still static dropped. figure its about 4 to 5 in the front and a flip kit with shackle in the rear with some springs pulled out only because thats what i did in highschool and thought it was cool lol . sad . now i need to buy new springs or go coil over with 4 link. im torn. bed is currently off.

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

My clear coat peeling peach! Current build project. It has 2.5 spindles and 1 coil cut, and rear flip. 15x8 up front and 15x10 in the rear. Installing a 5.3/4L80E with 76mm turbo and retaining the A/C. Going to wait until all of the weight is back on the front end before deciding whether or not more cutting of the front spring will be required.

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

Mine is 7" lower on all four corners

Re: static dropped square bodies with 15s
 

1979 Big 10 Dropped on stocks, awaiting 20" Detroit steel.
The drop in case others want to know....
Western chassis 2.5" spindles and 2" coils
Belltech rear flip kit, didn't use c notch yet
Belltech drop shocks 4" and 6"

Got 4.5" out of the front, and I think 6.25" from rear. There is about 2" between the rear axel and frame still. And truck is leveled at 26.5" to the center of each fender well. Stock 15x8 with 255/75-15 truck turns but rubs at full lock. I would not recommend 15" with drop spindles as I had to cut the balance weight off the back of the rims because new spindle steering rod mount is about 1/8" from touching the inner rim lip.
