If I might add some insight.... Getting it as low as can be w/wheel & tires appropriately sized yields better visual results vs. using shorter wheels & tires just to make it as low as possible. I've seen more than a few trucks that the owner got it to 'lay frame' but used super short tires that did not look as good as another truck that maybe doesn't lay frame but has the wheel well filled.

Food for thought.
Wow thanks brother for the kind words!!! I'm the kind of guy who goes all in or nothing!!! And yes, I am HERE TO LEARN!!! I was ALWAYS taught to respect my elders or people with more knowledge and SOAK UP THE KNOWLEDGE, after all, someone's probably already done it and done it better right?! Why not LISTEN AND LEARN?!?! I've learned almost everything from searching and reading this site and I must say, I've seen many of your posts and you always offer sound advice! So in a round about way, I feel like I know the kind of person you are and I really respect you! Thanks for looking at my thread and offering me advice!!! What size tire do you think I could run on my 16" wheels and still look good but give me a few inches of drop? I've actually searched and can't find too much as far as diameter? I'm thinking somewhere in the 26" diameter range?? Again thank you so much for the kind words along with everyone else here, and the advice and constructive criticism I've received! I want to be the best builder/fabricator/welder I can be so who better to learn from than people who have years of experience?! That's why I love this place!!
