55.2-59 Wheels on a dropped axle

[Dan in Pasadena]

Jeff, As I told you separately I would prefer 15" rims on these old trucks with 70 series tires, 60 at he lowest. BUT if your lower shock mount is below the rim as it sees in the above picture you need to modify something.

I'd suggest no bigger than a 17" rim on these trucks so you can get as much sidewall height as you can. There is little selection of sizes in 16" anymore anyway. I'd be running my old 15" knock off Torq Thrusts on mine if the Corvette discs/calipers allowed it but they are too big. Yet to be determined if a hall spacer would take it possible. Best, Dan
