Wheels, Tires, and suspension help needed.

Hey guys I can finally say that I bought a truck! I purchased a '72 shortbox with a 67-8 front clip. Really excited about getting this thing going, it is ready to roll except I need some help with wheels and tires, etc. This truck was a daily driver but sat too low for what I want. This truck has 2.5 drop spindles with 2 inch drop springs in the front that had one full coil cut out of them. The back has 6 inch springs and 2 inch blocks. I was thinking of replacing the front springs with 2 inch drop without cutting them and removing the block in the rear. I am wanting to run bigger tires than what he had on as well, obviously he couldn't fit much under that much of a drop. I would like to run 20's all the way around or a 20/22 stagger. I have included some pics of what I want the truck to look like and also my truck. I have been looking at threads on here which are amazing but some are very long and I am looking to get this resolved right away so I can start driving this. This winter I will start into bigger projects on the truck.

Thanks GUYS!!!
