Hi all,
Im running a 1.5" sectioned crossmember with bags and dodge 20's, I've got the truck sitting where I want it height wise without spindles but have a set of 2.5" dropped ones I can put in.

SO, do I need them?, I need as much lift as I can get due to having a steep driveway. I don't need to go any lower really and I kind of like the camber look when aired out and the way it tucks the tire up into the engine bay out of the way.

I typically drive the thing with 80-90 psi up front with 2600 bags, at this height am I likely to see accelerated tire wear ? Its the only real reason why Id be going to spindles at this stage. Any input ?

thanks

heres the truck in question
