Rim and Tire size on 2 1/2" - 4" drop? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

One thing I didn't do in my exitement when I started my build, is take tire-to-fender measurements. Now she's all apart, and I'm almost to the point of needing my new rims/tires.

Front drop is via lowering spindles, and I used CPP front disc conversion kit - 3" backspacing recommeded.
Rear drop is via lowering springs, Drum brakes. No fenders or box on yet.

Do I have room for 16" front, 17" rear rims? Hadn't planned for low profile tires, although I do like the look.

Photos and ideas? Thanks boys,
Ron
