Re: wheel issue 15x10 all around with295s

Here's mine. 3/5 drop - 15x10's all the way around. To be clear I am looking at getting some 8's for the front so I can put disc brakes on and not push out further. My paint guy says the wide tires up front will throw a lot of debri up on the body.

As bad as I want a wide set of rims under my truck I don't want them to stick out past the fender lip and I don't want to put mini tubs on the truck so.

I like how your truck sits mine is way 2 low on the front end so it hits the rear is perfect is just the front end. I was thinking about getting some spacers for the front springs but i might just trow some airbags

Here is mine I dont know what the back space is but they dont stick out of the wheel wells front or back. I have never had A rub issue. 4" lowering springs out back and A cut coil up front.
