You could do a 265/40 on the 2/4... but nothing wider. You are going to have to roll the rear fender lips all the way up though.
i would im just worried about the ride quality...i had drop springs on my previous vehicle and it rode like complete crap...so i dunno i guess i would like some input on how the belltech coils rode compared to stock.Downfall said:why not go ahead and do the 3/6 with 265/35 and be done
chris's truck looks sweet with that setup
Word on the Coils. They ride pretty stiff, although I am running on 35 series tires, so there isn't much to gain back as far as ride goes... it's simply all about the road conditions.Badassilverado said:I have 3" Belltech springs/coils and the ride is horrible. They do have alot of miles on them but I will be replacing them as soon as I get around to it. Go w/ DJM spindles IMO, NOT Belltech.
Good tire advise, I'd do the 265/40/22 on a 2/4.... but you are wrong about the Chevy Lean. It does lean to the left, although the rear axle is closer to the right side of the truck, so the Fender on the right side is more likely to rub as the left side would more than likely tuck.jboomer said:if you do the 2/4, do spindles in the front. because your not changing your suspension, its just moving your wheel up 2 inches. do the 285/35 d=29.85 or the 265/40 d=30.35. if u do the 265/35 d=29.3 with a 2/4 your tire diameter will look to small. i have two friends with 2/4 drops and they both have 285/35 22s and no problems. i have a 2/4 with 275/45 20s d=29.74 and i have no problems. and all three of us took out our rear helper springs so were more like a 2/5.
p/s and u would probably only have to worry about the left side(the stupid chevy lean :bowtie: ).
