The rear is dropped 2", but I am not sure how much the front end is lowered.

I will try to get a better picture that shows the aspect of the rear tires better.

Well I did a trial fit tonite DAAAAMMMM those suckers are big. LOL 17x9.5 5in backspace I will end up useing a 1/8 inch spacer they don't rub on the frame but its close. Have not test drove it yet my rear springs are wore out so I'm pretty sure they will rub out by the wheelwell trim. Wheelwell is 25 1/4 in from the ground. They look Bad A$$. I hate my 275's on 8in 4in back space. Hope this helps with those wanting pics.

 

[smoke20]

Congrats. Looks great. All you have do it try and find out.

A guy at a local meet said he had to notch the frame to get 255's to work, and that I could never run 275's without rubbing

 

[6togo]

Coleman are those 315's and can you get some pics showing frame clearance?

 

[Kent86GN]

Looks goooood man! What size were you running on rear 8''?
