235/85 on rear of lowered dually

I've used the search feature extensively and can't seem to come up with a answer. What's the maximum drop in the rear with a 235/85/16? If anyone has a pic or 2 that would be great also. Thanks

Well shoot. Mines not much lower than that and it's stock ride height.

235/85-16's. It will hit the inside lip of the bedside before it touches the outer fiberglass fender @ the top. 2nd pic is daily ride height....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Good looking truck! And thanks for the info. If you was to take a guess, what kind of drop old you say at daily ride height? Thanks again

Approx 7/9. At ride height, the frame rail is about 5" off the ground.
