How low does my truck sit?
Saw another thread on this subject but I didn't want to hijack it. I've always been curious and flat out just don't know these kind of things. But it's a question that comes up from time to time. The wheels are 20", and yeh, I know they are ugly. They are getting replaced soon!!!
So I need your expert opinions, how low is my truck? |

Not low enough. And the next set of wheels have them set out a little further.

There is a backspacer now on the rear and the tires are offset 20"x8" & 20"x10". |

Re: How low does my truck sit?
With those wagon wheels it doesn't look like you could go any lower on the front without rubbing, truck needs to come down a little lower to look right, running 18"s would bring it lower and with some 50 series tire it'll fill the wheel wells with more rubber

Looks like a very clean truck with nice paint. It has not been dropped much if any at all. The wheels are just not right.

Re: How low does my truck sit?
Thanks Jake. I really hate those wheels. I'm thinking about Ridlers 645

Re: How low does my truck sit?
Lol, wagon wheels is a nice way of putting it. I don't believe I want to continue running 20's", I was thinking more of 18's".

Member boat puller is the owner of that truck.
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/member.php?u=19511 His truck is a lot lower. I would say the OP truck is close to stock height. Maybe a 2" drop shackle on the back.

Re: How low does my truck sit?
I agree this OP truck maybe at original height in the front and dropped 2" in the back...
NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT! Add some aggressive wheels and tires... (raised white letter with some variation of star mag) and you will have a HOT ROD look instead of a lowrider look... That's exactly what I will be doing....
