3/5 Drop 20's Tire Sizes? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

mccurrkm · 03-06-2012, 07:17 PM

Hey guys, I'm working on a LS swap in my 85 C10 and I am trying to get my parts together. I am most likely going with the Ridler 695 in 20x10 rear and 20x8.5 front. I want to do a 3/5 drop because I don't want to sit too low. What tire sizes should I run with this setup? If you have pics of 3/5 drops on 20's, please share those too! Thanks!

I am running 245/50/20 on 8.5 wheels all around...I think that the sidewall height looks balanced going with a 50 series. I am running an LS 5.3 carb also.

Not sure if this will help or not. Mine is a little lower than what you wanna go, but it's dropped 5" in the front and 4" in the rear. The front tires are 245/40/20, and the rear are 295/40/20. Hopefully this just gives you an idea to start from.
