EKCASA Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 I'm building my 93 C1500 Ext Cab Long Bed. Getting ready to do a drop and wheels/tires. My original plan was to go with a 5/7 drop and 22x9.5 wheels. Looking at how close 5 ins would make the front fender and tire I'm not sure 22's are going to work. Anyone who has dropped one of these trucks what setup did you use. I'm not ruling out a 3/4 drop or smaller wheels. www.facebook.com/EKCASA System: All Rockford Fosgate Front: 2 Pair Prime 6.5's and 1 pair Prime 5.25 Components Rear: 1 Pair Prime 6.5 3 Ways Subs: 4 Prime R2D2-12's Amps: Front: Prime R250X4 Subs: 2 Prime 500X1d's HU: JVC KD-AR959BS 2 Optima Yellow Tops Singer 230A H/O Alt.

White Lightning Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 Yea ... dropped spindles and stock rims do not mix. I had to trim every fenderwell. rims are 20x 9.5 on all 4 corners with 245 50s on the front and 275 50s on the rear ... Front scrapes all of the time ... no way of getting around it with the shitty roads around here ...

EKCASA Posted March 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 Ended up buying a 2/4 Belltech kit. Any suggestions on wheel sizes? Still would love 22's but not set on it. www.facebook.com/EKCASA System: All Rockford Fosgate Front: 2 Pair Prime 6.5's and 1 pair Prime 5.25 Components Rear: 1 Pair Prime 6.5 3 Ways Subs: 4 Prime R2D2-12's Amps: Front: Prime R250X4 Subs: 2 Prime 500X1d's HU: JVC KD-AR959BS 2 Optima Yellow Tops Singer 230A H/O Alt.

Smoove Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 I'm running the beltech 2/4 drop on 18x9 wheels and 255/55/18 Nitto 420's all the way around. Edelbrock performer IAS drop shocks also As for Cableguy mentioned . drop spindles and stock wheels are great if you grind your wheels on your lower control arm.
