Re: How about some pics of lowered c10s/r10s on torq thrusts!!

Funny you should ask...I just purchased these wheels and tires a few weeks ago and couldn't be happier with them.









These are 20x8 in the front with 245 40 20 and 20x10 rear with 305 35 20. The front has a 4.5" backspace and the rears have 5.75". I plan on running a longer hardened stud on the rear axles so I can use a 1/2" spacer per side to push them closer to the fender. They don't rub but they would look better out further IMO.

Thanks! It actually rides really nice to. I'm currently working on a separate frame to get it on air but progress is very slow due to my schedule.

I understand that. I have almost the same suspension set up on my 87. Really like 20" rims, but the 17s with meaty rear tires give it more of a muscle look.

The 17" chrome tt2s is the way I'm going, then I'll ditch the 15" polished ones that are in it now. I prefer the muscle truck look that 17's give like bluexs has

Here's the one I keep going back to, it's classic87's before he went to 20s
