What size are your stock tires? Tell me that, and I can tell you if your speedo will be affected. Are you dropping a 4x4, or a 2 wheel drive?

I know my 275/45/20 rubbed on mine up front, but I have the jdm 4-6 and my wheels are +18 offset. 1 more inch up front and I probably wouldn't have had any issues.

if that is true those tires will be way too big for a 3" drop up front. the factory tires on Z71's are that tall. The tires I currently have on mine are 28.6 tall and only have a couple of inches of travel before hitting the inner fenderwell.Originally Posted by ls182

Im going by the tire calculator on Discounts website. Your 275/45/20 comes out to be 29.74" so I guess we can say give or take an inch and be in the ballpark. It does sound like a big tire for that amount of a drop though.

Well, I bought it with 275 all around. The 275s rubbed terribly so I put 245/45r20 up front after I bought it and they don't rub at all. The Discount Tire calculator is what I was using too.

The stock tires are General 255/70-16's. I would be running a 50 series due to towing. And the total tire height on them right now is 29". I would be running either a 285/50-20 or 275/50-20. Would that ten mil. really make that much or a difference?
