1956chevtruck, Not to hijack this thread but I like how your front tire fills the wheelwell. Right now Ive got temporary 225/75/15's oN my truck but 60's or 65's are in my future. I assume your truck is a static drop... I don't suppose there's any chance it's still on the straight axle, is there? Also. I have a shot at some free or VERY cheap Vette 15x8 Rallys but assumed they be too wide if I lowered it. Any chance you know the back spacing?

Hey Dan,
It's a camaro clip IFS not a straight axle. I took brand new stock small block springs and stretched them 1 1/4" to get just the right stance (at least in my opinion). The picture shows the stance before the stretch of the springs. On a side note, proud Dad moment, that's my daughter in the passenger seat as one of the Miss Teen Canada Contestants for all of Canada. They're stock 15 X8 Vette ralleys so whatever the stock back spacing is that's the measurement. Hope that helps.

Sorry about posting within your thread kgmunro.

When I did mine I kept the 114" wheel base and mine looks perfect. I did a few lock to lock turns and was glad I didn't add anything to it otherwize I can forsee some fender rub if you hit a decent bump while turning.

Looks good to me
