Re: What size tires is everyone runnin with a 2.5/4 drop?
Mine is an ECE 2.5"/4" drop...with 2" Ground Force drop springs...making is a 4.5/4 drop. I know my rally's are 15x7 in the front and 15x8 in the back. I'll go out and look at the BF Goods sizes.....hang on a sec......back..and the fronts are 235/ 60/ 15...backs are 275/ 60/ 15
I saw this exact setup on one of the members trucks here. Don't remember whom it was but it was a 72 Orange truck with a 68 front that him and his wife had done all the work including paint. The truck had a beautiful stance so I dooped in on mine!!! Last edited by ChevyDude; 05-12-2006 at 09:06 AM. |

My front is lowered about 2.75" with cut coils and 4" drop springs in rear. I run 275/60/15 tires with 8" rims on all 4 corners. I haven't taken any pics of it since I recently lowered it.

Re: What size tires is everyone runnin with a 2.5/4 drop?
i have around a 2.5/4 drop on mine with a 275/60 all the way around. love the ride and the traction. bigger tires slowed me down over a 255/60 though. the 275/60 looks alot better though fills it out
one pic is stock height with 255/60s other pic is how she sits now. purrfect to me.inner fender is hanging a little because its not bolted up
