Truck has 255/60's on truck ralley's all the way around. I drove it a little after I finished and thought the ride was harsh. It started to rain & I put away. Hopefully after the new stuff works some it'll soften up some. It has 2.5" drop spindles and stock springs on the front. Next project is new front shocks and maybe 2" drop springs on the front.
Looks like it came out pretty good...nice stance. I have the same setup on the rear. Road harsh huh? When I installed mine, I couldn't feel much difference. Thought it road like a truck Once I get new tires I'll have to come over and see your Gimmy.
