How low can I drop the front before having rubbing issues with the front tires. I really dont want to replace my 305/50/20's anytime soon.

Well, to tell you anything, I am lowered 2" in the front with the McGaughy's spindles and I rub fender lip and inner fenderwell on bumps in the highway and in town. I'm goin to have to go to a skinnier/smaller tire. And that's only with a 2" drop and 305/40/22s :(

Ditto. I did a 3/5-6ish on mine. With the stock 20's it rubbed the inner fender. I was okay with the 2/4.5.

I just picked up some SRT10 22's and ordered Nitto 285/45/22 tires. Lets just hope they fit! i do plan to roll the fenders so they tuck.

Now I have plans to C-Notch the rear (it's ordered), have already added Rear Air-helper bags with the stock shackles. The bags are a great add on, btw.

The mods continue.....
