Heres the deal, my mom wants to hook up her 96 ex-cab silverado. Im tryin to convince her to lower it on some 20's. What kind of drop can i put on the truck with 20's and still have her be able to drive it. I dont want rubber bands on the wheels, the tires GOT TO have some meat to them. They have a travel trailer they pull with this truck so im gonna throw some helper bags in the rear.

I wish she would bag it but she wont

thanks for the help!

^ said he needed MEAT on the tires... and a 35 series isnt anywhere near meaty



i would say the lowest and be able to turn withno rubbing would be a 4/6 drop with a 245/50 and an 8" wheel up front

if you wanna look in my profile my tahoe is also dropped 5/6 with 245/35/20s all around and the front is right at the fenderwells.
