You Oppinion Please....
Pro or Con is welcomed,
I'm planning on 5/7 possibly 5/8 static drop on my 72 C10. It will be a daily driver. I'm starting to see value in the Boss 338 wheel (If the hub was redesigned) So I'm contemplating ![]() ![]() Thanks!

Re: You Oppinion Please....
My '69 has a 5.5"/7.5" static drop,... but I'm not trying to turn those front wheels with an 18" rim.
(My 215/70-15's are only 26" tall up front) With the right backspacing,... it's probably possible,... but you're going to lose your inner fenders. A 4/6 drop might work better.

Here's a 4.5/6 drop on my '69 for reference...

Re: You Oppinion Please....
If you're wanting to go as low as possible, I'd recommend just going with bags. Especially for a DD... I can say that with the 4.5/6 I have yet to bottom out as of yet.
