i have a 96 s-10 ss thats already low because of the stock suspension.i put on 18" wheels which look sweet but i think there is too much room above the tires in the wheel well.i want to do a 2/3 drop and get some ground effects w/neons but im thinking its going to be too low,any help or suggestions i appreciate.thanks:dunno:

sonomagirl you read my mind...also whats the drop on the truck right now?

 

[98 SS ON NOS]

what size are the rims and tires and what is the backspacing.

ON the trucks i have done with the zq8 set up and i put spindles and blocks on it a 245 45 18 fit with no problem. if you have 245 40 18 id invest in some spindles and true 2 inchdrop springs in front and rear 3 inch leafs and 2 inch blocks

they are 235 40 zr 18 and the drop is the factory zq8 the rims are 18x9.5 i dont know the exact backspacing but i know its for an s-10,also im getting new tires ,what size should i get for what im trying to do?thanks

9.5 in front will rub no matter what. i cant believe you have a 235 on a 9.5 rim that is really dangerous. the 235 at most is a 8.5 rim

i bought all 4 online with tires already mounted,the guy said thay were 9.5 ,but ive never really checked,if so what tire size do you recomend?if they are indeed 8.5 what do you think the widest i could go?thanks tony

if its a 8.5 and bs is 4.75 then 245 40 18 will be fine. id keep the 235 just to be safe
