Hi Brian,

Here is my '71 with a 3.5" drop up front with 255/60/15 on 8x15 wheels and 5" drop out back with 275/60/15 on 10x15 wheels. If I had not put the 1" drop springs and let it ride on only the spindles, I think the truck would sit level. I had hoped to drop it another 1" out back but have interference issues (rear is leafs). Not sure what the overall diameter of the tires are but I am sure you know.
