they will go... I have seen them on a truck with about a 1/3 drop and they look GOOD.... if I could fit them in the back with my drop I'd be running them too...

With only a 2" shackle I'd get a 275/60 at a minimum. I'd probably run 265/70's with that drop; but then again I hate gaps.

Here was my 04 Crew Cab, with 2" shackles only and 275-60-17 Yoko's. Hope that helps.

28" tire would really give you a lot of gear though!
