X2

Are those torq thrust wheels

[crimsontide1966]

Yes on the wheels. American racing torq thrust, 20 x 8's. Tire size is 265/50/r20. They had a tendency to rub a little when hitting a dip. Then added some front variable rate springs, with bilstein shocks. Very rarely hits now. As far as pics, here's a before shot. With lots of buffing and cleaning, I think the ole truck turned out pretty decent. The lowering kit is from rough country. 2" drop spindles, 4" rear drop. We are a dealer for them, so I can get some hook ups

So you're not staggered? Do you know the backspace? I bet a 255/45r20 on the front would've cleared just fine.

Looks nice.

Truck looks great! I've been wanting those wheels but everyone says they won't work with a drop... do you know what the back space Is on them? I want to run the 20x8 front and 20x10 rear 2/4 drop. .

I just love those wheels on these trucks

I'm 2" spindle & 3" spring with 1/4 coil trimmed off in front now...

Good lookin truck! That's the same setup I've got, what shocks are you using front and rear, do you have part numbers? What is your rear set up? Flip kit with shock extenders?

After you cut the coil do you have any rubbing issues on the inner fenders?

It has been asked before, & I think I read they will. It will probably depend on tire size, & you may have to roll the fender lips.
