KrisH Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 What's the wheel specs? The tire size is an issue as well, tried that size a friend has on his Tahoe and it wouldn't work on my truck (3in drop in front) Wheels are a 24x10, +28 offset. Definitely want to change the tires asap. There's talk of a 285/35 24 coming out, but no idea if/when.
Nasty Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 It's also dependant on what body. The cc and ec are lower from what I've seen
wuznme Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 I'm running stock size 22's on 22x9.5 +25 no rubbing but it's close, so could see how those 24's rub with the extra inch of drop. If I was an inch lower in front mine would rub too. Can raise up an inch and use a 295/35 Keep height and use a 295/30

I'll need to find some photos to see if I could live with that look. I have an Explorer on 295/30 R24s and it looks good, but on a larger truck, it might look funny.
KrisH Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 Here's how the truck looks right now for reference. Love the look of the tires, but can't live with them rubbing as bad as they do. 2
Nasty Posted November 10, 2016 Posted November 10, 2016 What size 24 tire are you running on these trucks 3/6 and 4/7? Only tire I see in a 275 35 24is Lion Hart and I'm not buying those
Cooldaddygroove Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 I have an interesting question...........has anyone tried an airbag suspension in the rear only? I don't mean helper bags, I mean the full meal deal. I ask because many of you who have gone very low in your static drops, can't really tow or haul. That's cool with me if that's what you like, but some of us want that option. A full bag system would allow you ride height adjustment on the fly would it not?
Nasty Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Helper bags help with towing. I'd also rather tow with leafs and helper bags than a full on bagged rear end
SilsbySilverado103 Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 Someone correct me if I'm wrong but you'd need to rearchitect the rear end. Something like a four link.
Nasty Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 Yes because without the leafs there would be nothing to hold the axle in place
Kevin King Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 Here's mine 2"/4" Very nice. Did you do it locally?
volcom8190 Posted November 23, 2016 Posted November 23, 2016 Here's mine 2"/4" what did you use to drop the front, control arms?
