My new 63
I just picked up a 63 short fleet small back window,body is average,thepower plant is great! An older low milage crate 350/350 combo,Plus a tilt wheel,I want to slam it 3/5 or 4/6 with a 265/50/15 and 295/50/15 tire combo that I already have, does anybody have any photos for any ideas?And are there any rubbing issues? Thanks

Re: My new 63
I like your 63, very nice. I lowered mine 3 1/2" and 5" And have no rubbing issues. I am running 255/55's on 16" X 8" wheels. They have 4 1/2" backspacing. Best of luck with your project. Here'a a photo of mine:

Re: My new 63
Nice find on the '63
I've seen guys running the 295/50R-15 tires on the back, but I don't know how much drop they had.

PO put 295/50R-15 all around on my truck
