I am now in the market to lower my truck. I want a 2/4 drop. I don't want the spindle kit because I don't want my wheels poking out any more than they already do. I'm ok with just a rear drop but with 24's I think it would look better w/ a 2/4 drop. The tires rub in a certain spot when turning sharp already so im hoping i can pull it off. Dont remember the specs for backspacing but i know its a 10" rim and tires about 12". Opinions?

If they're already rubbing man, I would probably forgo it, or maybe just do the rear...

i agree with hkkid...if you already rub, lowering will possibly make the rubbing worse...a possible solution would be thinner tires

You could check out ground force and if its rubbing ya your going to have problems best best just drop the rear or like Butch said get a lower profile tire hence why i got bigger tires to make it look lower lol.
