4.5/6 as a daily driver?
I am curious how a 4.5/6 drop does as a daily driver? Will I be hitting the bottom of my truck on speed bumps? I like the 4/6 look but is it feasible?

I have 20's on my truck so it sits alot higher than the guys with 28" tires on rallye wheels. I have never been close to bottoming out. With that said I wouldn't daily drive my 69 stock height,lifted or dumped. I'm spoiled and have no desire to round trip a 40+ year old truck 70 miles a day for safety reasons.

It had some old school enki 15" rims with 28" tires If your close to home I would say go for it. It rides and handles good its just not a modern car with regards to breaks and gas mileage.(I also drop my 3 y/o off at day cair every morning and not sure the wife would dig the front seat no air bag thing)
