You Oppinion Please....
Pro or Con is welcomed,
I'm planning on 5/7 possibly 5/8 static drop on my 72 C10. It will be a daily driver. I'm starting to see value in the Boss 338 wheel (If the hub was redesigned) So I'm contemplating  18x8 in the front and 20X10 in the rear. If you have any pics of a similar set up please post them so i can visualize it outside my head Thanks!

Re: You Oppinion Please....
My '69 has a 5.5"/7.5" static drop,... but I'm not trying to turn those front wheels with an 18" rim.
(My 215/70-15's are only 26" tall up front) With the right backspacing,... it's probably possible,... but you're going to lose your inner fenders. A 4/6 drop might work better.

Re: You Oppinion Please....
If you're wanting to go as low as possible, I'd recommend just going with bags. Especially for a DD... I can say that with the 4.5/6 I have yet to bottom out as of yet.
