Re: 73-87 Drop 73-87 spindles with stock steelies question, will they hit?

From my experience, a 6" rim will clear just fine. A 7" rally (the ones that came on the vans) will clear the control arm but will knock the hammer-on wheel weights off, so you have to do a slight bit of grinding or run a 1/8" wheel spacer shim. An 8" rally will not work without a bunch of grinding.

I think a 6" wheel looks great on the front. I like the way TX Firefighter's truck looks. Nice and simple, with a little hot hod thrown in.
