So when I was buying my truck I had found two that I really liked the looks of. Need help with the top picture. I want to build something really similar with my 1999 Chevy RCSB.
Can someone tell me what drop and details about this one or maybe is/know the owner? I'm guessing 3/5 with 275/45/20? What do you guys think?
And this is the other one I like for reference. Was for sure a 3/5 with 275/60/17. And I found it on this site.
I would say you are pretty close with the guesses on how much they are lowered. The top one almost looks like it has a 2-4 drop with those tires. Looks very similar to the drop on my old sierra. Bottom one looks lower, but maybe because of the smaller rims.
This was mine with spindles and hanger/shackles in the rear with stock 275/55 tires.
The stock 275s look a little stuffed in the first pic, but look good in the second.
OP, I think you are right on both of those trucks. The 275/45 may be a special order for tire places, not a big deal for initial purchase, but that is a consideration for me (seen issues a lot with that in the shop).
One other thing is that depending on use the trucks have seem depends on sag and all too, and a 3 inch drop may be 3 for me but 4.5 for you because it's sagged. (I'm sure it's common knowledge, but some people don't know it out there).
