Tucked tires & wheels on a static drop 67-69

[fast&low]

Ok guys looking for pics of your static dropped 67-69 with the wheels & tires tucked under fenders & if you have deep lips on a factory frame even better!!!
Just trying to see what set up looks better so that I can go with
Just finished the grand slam kit (5 bolt disc brake conversion 4/6 static drop kit)
& my goal is to go big wheels & tires 18"-22" with a deep lip in the back & I don't want to narrow the diff unless I absolutely have to?
The reason I say 67-69 only is because of the difference in rear end length after 1970.
Thank you for looking

A deep lip in the back will require narrowing the rearend.
Look at this thread:

Yeah I came up on that one too. but if you look at the two-tone orange and white one it doesn't look like he had to narrow his diff? I'm looking for a big lip, not a punch bowl I'll be happy with 4 1/2 that will tuck but if I have to narrow I will.
I have came up on old threads that the guy's say they didn't narrow but don't give all info on build so I shoot them a private msg but they don't respond.
It's just that narrowing a diff in Houston is not cheep & for some reason took them over 3 weeks almost a month & I want to say it was 1,200 & that was 3 years ago I hate to know what it costs today :/

67-69 housing with a 10" wide wheel "tucked",... will require a 5" backspace.
Here's a 4.5/6 drop with a 20x10 (4.75" bs).
But if you are going to bag it ever,... I would do a 5" bs.

Keith my truck is a 69 just like this one & I want to say I measured 4 1/2 BS without cutting bed & tubbing.
Its raining outside right now & I don't know if my numbers are right?
I was under the impression that more backspacing = less of a lip?
I was going to go 22x11 & narrow the diff but the fab work on the bed would kill me $$$ unless I do the cuts & leave it open till I win the lotto

[lolife99]

More BS equals less lip. That is correct.
I measured the truck I posted.

There are lots of opinions on what is "tucked".
Just remember a 10" wide rim is actually 11" wide on a tape measure.
(10" is the bead surface,... not the overall width)

[fast&low]

Yeah that's the way I measure from the inside of bead to bead.
& your right on the different tucked opinions
I don't like to see the top of the tires.
Is that your truck?
That is the look I'm looking for the lip on the back is perfect IMO
Are those 10"?
