oh yeah, how low can i go without a c-notch?

They will rub like crazy unless you put on rubber band tires. My new 68 is lowered 4/6 and I run 255/55/18's and they tuck up front and I have to be very carefell about bumps or they will rub bad enought to scare the hell out of you.

early classic enterprises sells a 4/6 drop kit. it consists of 2.5 drop spindles, 1.5 drop springs, shock relocators, and in the back a big drop spring i think. look at theyre website. it being a 72 will make it that much easier because u already have discs

thanks for the info. anyone else?

I got a 4/6 drop from Early Classic and there is no need for a c-notch. IMO they make the absolute best quality stuff around. As far as the 20's go, I really don't know how much of a tire you could get, but I will bet it will have to be a VERY low profile.

meathead check out the link in my sig 'Britney'. I have ECE 4/6 drop, no c-notch. the tire combo is from another member with the same setup on his suspension. He had a SWB. I got picture of his ride. send me an email.

meathead95 · 10-26-2003, 12:25 PM
