Depends on what you want it to look like. Here is 5/7 drop with 15x10 rears (5" BS) 295/50/15. Fronts are 8" rallys with 245/60/15.

If you are talking to me it is about 1/8 inch but even with a 7" rear drop the fender doesn't come down into the sidewall. I even got in the back of the truck and jumped up and down and there was a finger width of distance between the fender lip and sidewall. It just has the appearance that the fender comes down over the sidewall it is actually above it. If you know what I'm getting at.

That being said I am still gonna do a little trimming on my fender lip for piece of mind.

I would do 15x10 rears with 275/60/15 on the rear then.

So what size did you go with? I have 15 x 8 for the front and 15 x 10 for the back, wheel vintiques 37 series with derby caps, but haven't decided on what tires yet. Rims are still in the boxes, truck is at factory stock ride height. Undecided about tire size.

Re: rally wheels and stance? ?

I have 15X8 with 4 3/4 back spacing on my rallye rims.. be careful whatever rim you get doesnt have any more than 4 3/4/ inches back spacing on front or it will lock up the tims to the tie rod ends and render the truck un moveable.
