Tire & Wheel Combonation...

JWall, great looking truck!

I've bent enough wheels that I wanted a little more tire. This is:

Front - 255/45/20 on 20x8.5 with 5.25" backspacing
Rear - 295/40/20 on 20x10 with 6" backspacing

Every time I see either one of these trucks posted it makes me consider lowering something. Probably my favorite two lowered rigs on the site. So badass.

Thanks, I would say stick with Bell Tech all the way. Springs & spindles up front, flip kit out back, and their shocks too. If you're an extended cab be sure to get the carrier bearing spacer kit.

You could opt for other brand spindles as many say the Bell Tech push the wheels out a little bit more, if this is true I'd say it's for clearance to the suspension when turning but of course that costs you in fender lip clearance. If you're going to choose any other brand I'd say DJM on the spindles (but ONLY the spindles, stick to Bell Tech for everything else especially the flip kit.)

5/7 drop with ¼ coil cut off the front spring

Spindles/Springs in front & flip kit with c-notch in back. And then shocks all the way around.
I like Western Chassis brand parts followed by BellTech. Both of my 98’s are dropped with all Western Chassis Parts.

And thank you!

hey is this a 4/6 drop? do u rub at all with this tall of a tire? do you think that you could tuck a 305/35r20 in the back with the 6 inch backspace or is 295 already almost rubbing?

Wow no reply???

True, though I do get on here fairly regularly. But anyone can overlook a request for more info, and when I see someone getting bent out of shape like their dog got kicked, I lose interest pretty quickly.

Well my bad .im just trying to get as much info as i can so i dont spend money on something that wont fit dats y not trying to be rude or anything

I run 285/50 /20 on mine with 0 offset on 20x10 riddler wheels and they have about 1 inch before hitting the leaf springs so I would say it would rub my truck is a 1997 ecsb
