Original springs and leaf ?

No spacer needed ?

Thanks
My 68 C20 is coils not leaf’s. Lowered coils front and rear. Used 1/2 ton coils. 2” lower front and 4” rears.

It turns lock to lock with no rubbing. I have also haul a cubic yard of compost home and no rubbing in the back with a good load. But they really fill up the wheel wells.

No spacers.

Before I ordered the wheels I had found another person on here who was running 18x9. He had a different offset and had to run a small spacer for offset.

My wheels. ION 171-8981MB - Style 171 Series Wheels
Specs:
Style No: 171
Size: 18x9
PCD1: 8 x 165.1
Offset: 0
Backspace: 5
Hub: 130.8
Load rate: 3300

The rear caps on the wheels were to shallow to fit over the axle hubs that stuck out so I had to build a spacer that went between the wheel and the extra cap to push the centre cap out 3/4”.
