Re: Been over before but i need refresher. 5/7

A 5/7 is too low for those tires in the front. They will rub on the inner fenders. I would change to a 7" rim in the front with a 215/70-15 or your 8" rims with a 235/60-15 or a 245/60-15. In the rear I would run a 275/60-15 or a 295/50-15. The front and rear rims should tuck or you will rub the fender lip. Remember to use quality lowered shocks, (belltech, etc) and a 7" drop in the back will require a bolt in notch. A 4"/6" drop might be better for a daily driver.
