Unfortunatly guys i'm a solid noob when comes to car tech and **** like that! So I will probably be asking questions on this website really often in hope to find some answers!
So here's my fisrt concern! Just bought an 08 silverado extended cab 4x4 w/ 5,3L engine. And i'm in the process of getting it modified. But here's the problem, I live in a town far up north alberta. And everyone's got brand new trucks lifted to the sky with the most expensive parts you can find, and i'm not kiding like at least 200 and over...Anyways this isn't the problem, I totally dig the fly high style! But i'm also a big fan of super huge wheels think. I dunno what to go for, and i'm really not carring of the cost and the disadvantage of both...If I go for the lowered style with big rims i'll be more careful of the roads..and if I go for the tickles the clouds style well i'll be almost careless of the everyday pot holes and ****! Anyways for today i'd like to hear your tips and suggestions for the following question! THANKS A LOT GUYS How low could I go if I wanna trow 26's rims on my silvi without rubbing anywhere? And if you know what would be the best suspension lowering kit! Thanks again! |

Living out in the country I'll I've done lately is raise 'em up. Back in the day I've used belltech, but they may not be the current innovator in the sport truck look. I'm sure someone will chime in with a suggestion.

if i were you i would go with airbags all around. I cant say i would want to lower a 4x4 expsecially living in Canada but with air then you can at least get it back to normal ride height, with winter tires and rims when needed

Yeah i've been thinking about trowing bags on it...just regular set up, like slammed, ride heigt and maximum heigt!
anyways i'm also really concern about the rubbing! I've heard the most stupid think ever yesterday..some chic I know told me that is boyfriend's got 24's on is 08 silvi and he had to put a 6 inch lift in the front to avoid the rubbing! how weird is that...and it probly doesn't look good at all! anybody has a clue? |
