I'm close to pulling the trigger on either:

McG's 2/4 drop

Black 20x9 SRT's

What do you guys think?

I'd do the drop before the wheels.

X2. Definitely

Yup! Drop, then wheels!

AF_Hemi · Mar 12, 2011

do them together!!!

mitchman · Mar 12, 2011

Well, I am unsure on the drop. I was thinkin' about just getting black wheels (love black) and selling my wheels, and cutting the rear coils to level it out for the time being. That way I don't have to mess with helper bags and all that ****

Drop. Why do you have to mess with helper bags? How often do you tow/haul?

Well, I do remodel and stuff like that, which we have a 450 for and does the towing (I don't even have the tow package) but I need to be able to load the truck with a few hundred pounds w/o bottoming out.

I too want the drop, but looking on ebay these newer 20" wheels go for a mint. I was thinking if I buy wheels-then sell mine on ebay, I could damn near be back where I started budget-wise and do a drop :********:

If I do the drop first I have nothing to make money back on to put out money on the wheels and therefore I won't be doing them.

Ah I need to make my damn mind up!

I say rims first ... instant gratification

Laramie1997 · Mar 13, 2011

I would drop it first and then evaluate your wheel choice... IF it's what you like, then go for it, but damn. I see way too many of those wheels around these forums.

Then again, I like to break away from the trend with my stuff anyways.

mitchman · Mar 14, 2011

I wish I wasn't so indecisive. I kinda want to drop it, I kinda want to just cut the rear springs, I kinda wanna have these wheels painted (I can get one hell of a deal on it) I kinda want to save for 22's.

Ahhh :crazy:

jmesl8er · Mar 14, 2011

Drop it, anything lowered always looks good, even with factory rims.

zack · Mar 14, 2011

Drop then tuck those wheels

Well, I can tell you that cutting the springs is a very bad move to make! There, that help? LOL

Seriously though, cutting the factory springs isn't a good idea and I cringe every time I hear about it being done.

Agreed, NEVER CUT THE SPRINGS!

Who the hell would even consider the option of cutting springs...Worst thing you could do

Wheels if they are a once in a lifetime opportunity (meaning really really good deal) then do the drop later. If the wheels are easy to come by and stay the same price then drop it.

mitchman · Mar 15, 2011

Yeah, well that's why I haven't done it. I will have to man up and do the drop.

Wheels will come when these tires are worn out (then I can justify the added costs of upping them to 22's)

4.7Ram5.7Rango · Mar 15, 2011

I would personally say do the wheels first... if you were going with 22's now. If not, go ahead and drop it, the factory ones look pretty good too!

xxxotiknightz · Mar 16, 2011

I say hold off and buy both at once
