Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
Nacho - I like that stance. What are the specs on the wheels and tires?

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
So my truck has some rake with the PO having lowered the front about 4". Today I got to see what it would look like with the rear done about 6". Maybe this is how they did mock-ups before photoshop? 2000lbs of cobblestones = 6" drop

I like it. But perhaps take out a few more stones. Otherwise, drive it as is.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
Thanks. I like the 18's better also. The fronts are 18x8 with 4.5 inch BS. The rears are 18x9.5 with 5.5 BS

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
I was going to go with 20's but I'm starting to rethink that now with how bad our roads are here in PA. 18's still look nice and allow you to have a taller side wall on the tires.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
That was my thinking also. I went with 235/60/18 fronts and 255/55/18 rear.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
Is that 7 up front or 6.5 up front? Either way how do you drive down the rode without dragging your lower control arms on everything?

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
Yes, it has a bolt in C notch, it rides pretty good.
This shell belongs to a friend of mine and it matches it pretty good, but last week I picked up a nice "Gem Top" shell.
