Thanks for the warm welcome everyone

So you have a photo shop on here to mock up an idea?

If I did the 2 1/2 spindle would I need a realignment? Should I chop the rear spring or get new drop springs? Maybe you can't chop them since they tapper on both ends?

Before I was thinking of changing the wheels but like I said they are really growing on me. The actual o.d. on the tire is 27". Maybe go with a 255/70/15 which should be 2" larger at 29" and filling up 1" of wheel well? Any pics of a 255/70/15 in stock height and dropped 2-3"?
