Maximum Height and Width Wheel/Tire Combo without Modification?

I have a 1987 R10 2WD with a 4/6 STATIC drop in the works, and need some input...

What is the maximum height and width Wheel/Tire Combo I can run front and back without any modification or inner fender removal?

Would love pictures if you can provide them!

Not knowing what size wheels you want you should be able to run a 27.5-28" overall height on the front and 29-30" height in the rear with no modifications or rubbing. I run 20x8 & 20x10 wheels with 245/40 & 275/45 on all my trucks, and a 1-1/4" rear spacer on the back with no problems on a 4.5/6 drop. I hope this helps.
