Hello,

I want to lower the front of my 56 as low as possible without scraping the ground.  Does anyone have any advice on what 17 inch wheel and tire combo would work the best?  I am looking at 205-50-17 on a 17x7.

Thanks,

Ross

Am I the only one who is scratching his head on this one?

Taller wheels means a taller truck (I think that is what I knew once) ???

To get lower, the spindle center line has to get closer to the ground not the other way around.... Or am I missing something beings I am so old?
