i have a 1998 single cab chevy fullsize truck.
is it posable to completely lay out my truck with the stock 15" wheels and the stock size tire?
i dont know the tire size off the top of my head. i think its like a 275/65-15  but i i dont know.
and if it is posable what would it take front suspension wise to get it to lay?

I think a 275/65/15 is about the same height as a 265/35/22 so I think you would be good.   To lay the front out check this thread http://www.fullsizechevy.com/forums/general-discussion/street/337871-dont-know-if-we-have-but-all-info-lay-frame-22s-obs.html

15 inch wheels + drop spindles = no turning radious at anything lower that stock height

my yota does that on 16s. i get 95% full lock at drop. but, he is right. if you want to do it on the cheap, maybe find some used 17s on craigslist. or is it for the look of steelies? you dont have to run spindles, it just helps. and a 235/75/15 is around 29" tall. you can get 22s with a 35 around that size. you could also build new LCAs that kick in more where the wheel would rub onto it. or cut an area off, and replate it that way.

i measured the overall tire hight and is around 27"/28" and the wheels are the stock aluminiam wheels not the steel wheels
