Help me stance my new c20

New member here, just picked up a 71 c20 a few weeks ago. Its been a great daily driver/work truck for me so far, but is in dire need of a more aggressive stance and wheel tire combo. The only thing I am concerned about is it remaining fully functional, I need to be able to carry a yard of sand and bags of cement in the back and have reasonable ground clearance for construction sites.

A few things I was thinking of:
2" spindle drop OR 2" spring drop in the front (which is more suitable?) and go for a slight rake look

Staggered wheel setup, keep the wheels the same up in the front and find a wider steel wheel with a dish and more backspacing/wider tire for the back

I'm not opposed to going with completely new wheels all around, and I have been toying with the idea of lowering the rear and going with helper bags. The hubs in the back stick out quite far, so I am also struggling with finding wheels that will look good.

So many options, don't know where to start or what to do

Any ideas?
