Can someone give me some details on this truck?

This truck was in a recent magazine, and its exactly how I hope for mine to look. What I am curious about is what items he used to lower the truck. I am assuming bags, but did he also use dropped spindles? If so, how much?

Also rim back spacing and tire sizes would be great.


Thanks!

Here is a pic.
