haha... very good point!
do whatever u gotta do to keep the 20s. nuff said!
i say its not how big your wheels are its how hard you drag that shit, I say ditch the 20s and lay the body!
i say sell the 20s to my president he will use them on his mazda & body it over them....
I think you should put 22s in the rear and 20s up front.. Like they said, if your going the route of BDing it hell just go all the way...
Everyone is making good points each way. I made the fenders in the front removable so I can just trim them up a little more and the front is good. The wheel wells in the back are high enough to barely clear the 20's with a little more trimming on the inside. I am going to stock floor it if I body drop it. I am tall and fat an can't drive a cut body drop very well. It can be done with leaving everything that is on it so far but it will not be easy. if it was easy I guess everyone would do it. I tend to agree with the people who say fuck the big wheels but at the same time I don't want the truck to get passed by at the cruise or the show as just another truck on 17's. I guess I am sticking with the 20's. I may just get a different set.

Youre not crazy. IF i ever build another truck, it will not be anything bigger than an 18" wheel. Im sorry. but it wasnt fun driving on a big wheel. isnt that the point? to drive it? all these people stuffing 22s and even 24s into shit that should never see a 20, is rediculous. what ever happened to makeing something look good and function. do what you want and if driving it is what you want. a smaller wheel is that ticket. My s-10 was BD on 20s...and i hated it. tearing up fenders i worked so hard to paint is not my idea of fun driving
sorry, chip, i'm staying the hell away from this one, lol
