Same old questions...

I have searched and read many different topics on the forum regarding lowering our trucks. I am at a loss as to which way to go. I definitely like the lowered look. But can I make it a daily driver? Mayby you all can help me choose a direction to go. I have made some measurements of the rear fenders of my truck and the cab to the ground. I can't measure the front because the fenders are not on the truck right now. If I do the flip kit and c-notch (6 inch drop) I will have about 1 inch or the rear tire tucked in the rear fender (see picture). If I do the 2.5 or 3 inch spindles and a 1 inch spring in the front I don't know how much I will tuck if any at all. I don't want to have any tire or rim issues right now.

How do these trucks ride with a 4/6 drop? Would I be better off doing the 2.5/4 drop? I have never been in one of these trucks while they drive, not even my own yet, so I have nothing to compare it to. Let me know what you all think!
