    Ok so heres the deal.can you install a flip kit on leaf springs that have a helper spring leaf installed or not?

    How bad are clearance problems with a 5/7 drop?

    Probably not on a 8 inch drop if you go 5/7 you should be fine and ur ride will be more comfy.dropped88 is running 265/65r17 on a 6 inch drop its 30 inches in diameter so if we do the math 255/55r18 is 28.8 1 inch less should work on 5/7 .if you really want 5/8 u might want to use 255/50r18
