Tires and stance

[0311fastco]

Im wanting to use 17 inch rims, with a 4/6 drop what is the widest I can go with a 17? without having to tub my truck and wanting the wheel to fit perfectly into the wheel well also how tall would it be? Thanks for the help. pictures would help!

as long as you clear everything in the front you can go pretty wide. i have 265/50/r20's all the way around on mine with a 5.5in backspace on the wheels. i put a 1.5in spacer on the rear because most of the newer wheels are designed for newer trucks. i believe the tires are 11 or 11.5 inches wide and i clear everything no problem. hope this helps

Assuming your truck is a Fleetside, you can run a 10" wide wheel on the rear without any problems. I'm running 10x17's on the rear of a 5/7 dropped Stepside and it's a bit tight since the Stepsides don't have quite as much room as the Fleetsides.

I am running 17 by 10 in the rear of my fleetside. Big 30.5 tall tires are a super tight fit but look great stuffed under there. I an running 5.5 inch backspacing.

Would help if you advised on Fleet/Step Side bed.
In addition, how low are you? How low do you plan on going?

Nice ride! that is pretty much the setup that I am looking for, what are the exact sizes on the front and back tires, also do you have your build thread available or more pictures? that would be great!
