    Where to go with truck?

    I need some opinions guys, i recently moved down a dirt road and it doesnt agree with my 5/8 drop since i bottom out in ruts so i ordered new coils and i going back up to a 3/6 drop.

    But my tires are gonna be to small now and have fender gap. They are 17s so not very many radial choices, i dont want big wheels and most 20s are super heavy except centerlines which i cant find a good deal on.

    I want that race look so considering going with 16s and radials but dont know what would look good. I want the wheel setup street/race friendly when i drop the ls1 in here shortly.

    I want something permanent also and kinda sleeperish because after the motors in and drive train setup im done with this one and just gonna daily it and find another mini truck for me to bag and bodydrop so i wont want to mod my daily 24/7 lol

    any body got any good ideas or opinions.

    Yea i saw it but im just probably raising my truck back up to a 3/6 drop and adding some bigger tires on the 17s, only down side to that is no one makes a good radial for 17s if i go 16 or 18 then i can find some nice radials for the rear and a tire the same size for the front

    So why not just bag your current truck?
