due to me having autoride it will not come down the full amount Also the rear doesnt matter on the trucks its the front. Ive done 305 35 24 on a full drop but you will need the spohn upper/lower/panhard bar becuse the tires get sucked to far forward and rub.

Right now I just have to adjust the autoride links the ride is better with my springs and I think I will leave it where its at for now and wear out the tires. Im debating on just replacing the rear belltech kit with my springs since rides a lot smoother. GOing for a ride with 6 people today to the street races at 2pm and everyone besides me is over 225 pounds so ill see hot it does.
