2006 RCBS "shop truck"
I've wanted a "shop truck" for a while now.
Just found a MINT truck near by with 26k miles!
Plan is low and slow.
Truck has a V6 and 5-Speed
Want a 5/7 drop, working out what parts to order now.
Picked up some 22" transport steel wheels, unsure what size tire to run yet.
I'm sure my questions and searching is stamdard "newbie"
Hoping to learn a bit, and have a bunch of fun.
Thoughts?
Advice?

My 02 5/7 on 265/35/22 hankooks, 22x9.5 wheel(air shocks at 0 psi)
The fenders are rolled on the bed and they never rubbed. The front rubbed a little on dips in the road. They are sold and were replaced with 18" Eagle 219s
My SS lowered 6/8 on 285/35/22 Sumitomos, 22x10 SS reps (air shocks at 150 psi)
The front rubs at full lock on the inner fender on the passenger side. The bed also hits on the 14 bolt rear diff so I have a bit of rake (which I HATE)
I sold this one in 2009 but it was a 3/5 drop on 22x9 KMC SS with a 285/35/22 Nittos
Didnt rub at all and was about to be lowered 5/7 when I was offered decent money for it.

I have my 00 Silverado lowered 5/7 and I am running 22's 265/35/22 all around and I have a very little rub at full turn or when hitting bumps but one way I stopped that was by installing a set of rubber spacers in the springs and eliminated 99% of my rub....and still measures out the same as far as the height of the truck......

Beltech 5/7 drop ordered. Trying to find a beltech helper bag kit (5008) in stock some where. Seems beltech is no longer making them. Worst case I will use another brand helper bags with that company's notch. Goal is to do as little fab as possible. I see no reason to when there are so many bolt together options.
Picked up a CHEAP set of transport wheels.
90% sure I need 265/35-22 tires to clear....
