[bigblock79]

i got some 3in drop spindies. and 2 in lowering spring and a flip kit out back going to put them in this week. have any one run 255-70-15 up front and 285-70-15 out back. thanks

The 3" drop spindles and the 2" drop springs may just put you on the ground, hard. You may have to go a little less than that, especially for those tires, the 255/70/15 is a 29.06" tall tire and the 285/70/15 is a 30.71" tall tire. You may not have front fender well clearance for that tall of tire.

cool.............see ya down here. ..check out a thread by bigblock 73 (jeff).he just went thru some trial and error with 15 inch wheels.his turned out nice.iv'e got 3 inch spindels and 1 nch coils.but 17 inch wheels.so it's different.

a 245 or 255/60 tire on the front might work better --- that tall of a tire in the back will give it some rake too

Hah, not really - sure the size-designations of the tires will be different, but what matters is the overall diameter of the tire, and those can be had from online tire dealers like Tire Rack. So really you say what tires you have, bigblock79 looks them up for dimensions, finds a 15" tire that is as wide as yers and has the same diameter as yers, we call it a day
