Yes 295 are the best for a 2/4 drop. I have had many 26's with a 2/3 and 2/4 drop and just recently with the new 6's have 295 and barely any rubbing. But offset is a key to rubbing.
The KMC Slides I got are 28 mm offset - 26x10. I don't mind a little rubbing. Seems to me the 305 30 26 tires look better on a 2/3-4 drop. I can see norcals caddy and others looks awesome in 3/5 drop with 295 30 26

I'm still split on my decision. I'm not all that fond of too skinny tires.

This is off the internet with Nitto 420S 305 30 26.

I have +30mm offset, believe me, with the 305/30/26 tires trimming of the liner was necessary, it looks like even more so on those wheels than mine, here's a photo of mine ImageUploadedByTapatalk1415978809.596705.jpg

I have the lexani lx nine in 295 30 26 and ran them on NYC streets. They are really good tires. I also asked many members for advice first and the lx nine was the consensus. I 100 percent recommend them.

Do you have a picture of how much trimming you needed to do? Wheels look nice btw.

Was that at stock ride height in those pictures? I have 1"/2" drop right now and I have to wait till the summer now to see how it looks with all 4 of my 26's on the truck before I decide if I want to put 4" drop springs in the back and adjust my front struts for another 1" lower.

But when I had 305 I wish I had 295 all the time.
