Another tire size ?
When I lower my truck 3-5, what tire size will work (not hit the fenders while turning) I am wondering about backspacing and Height and Width. This info for the front of the truck, I can figure out the rear, because they will stay straight.
I am debating going to a 17" rim, but I can figure that out when I go to the goodyear website.

Look for tires that are 28" tall and no more than 10" of tread width.

i am running 325/50 Drag radials on a 4/6 drop, can barely fit my finger between the tire and wheel well tub, but it fits. I also second what GMC paul says.
