Correct wheel/ tire size/ Back spacing

[Larry S]

Thinking about ordering wheels and tires online. I have 1969 c10 lowered 2” in front and 4” in back. What is best size and backspacing. Id like to see some pics if possible. Thanks in advance.

Correct wheel and tire size is really a matter of personal preference. Once you determine what wheel and tire size you like you can make decisions about offset and backspacing.

These are 20x11 front, 20x12 rear. 6.75 bs and 7.75 bs respectively. They're 315 tires on all 4 corners. This required modification to suspension up front not to rub at full lock.

Rear BS will also depend on what width rear end you use.

A popular size people run on these is 18x8 front and 18x10 rear. I think they usually run 4.5-5" bs front, and 5.5"bs rear on that setup.

Looks good!
How much is this lowered?

Honestly hard to say since the coilovers are adjustable. I can measure the distance from frame to floor for your tomorrow though and you can compare. It's on drop spindles too, which are 2" alone.
