    What have you done to your square lately??

    New shoes came in last night. Definitely need a narrower track width in the front or the 5.25 backspace wheels. Less than 1/2" clearance stock spindles and 4.5" backspacing on 8.5 wide rim.

    I looked at the Coverlay panels but absolutely despise the soft inserts. They look horrible! Let me know how the glue removal goes. I wouldn't want to get into a bad to worse situation trying to modify them. It be easier to settle for LMC panels lol.

    HELP WITH WHEEL AND TIRE SET UP

    MOST spindles are rated for 2.5" of drop. I spoke with Suspension Specialists, Western Chassis, Belltech, McGuaghy's and CPP. It would appear that almost all "manufacturers" use a single foundry and casting - CPP being the exception as they offer 3 types of spindle for our trucks. Springs can...

    HELP WITH WHEEL AND TIRE SET UP

    I'm dealing with backspacing questions as well. From my research it seems like the factory rally wheels I have are 8" with a 0 offset or 4" BS and have 31 x 10.50 x 15's mounted, no rubbing. The C10 "specific" Halibrand Sprints I purchased come in 4.5, 4.75 or 5.25 BS and moving to a 20" x 8.5"...

    Backspacing help

    Well I called Custom Offsets finally since no one else could give me a clear answer. They seem to think that the 4.5" BS is the way to go or at least what he would run. It should give just a smidge over 1" clearance with a 255/45/20 and have a little more dish to the wheel face. The 5.25" BS...

    Backspacing help

    Zero desire to big brake upgrade. I would have to swap to factory 1.25 rotors and calipers to use CPP modular spindle.

    Backspacing help

    Because the 10" width was no longer available... I even tried to substitute a spinner version but didn't want the alignment hole in the face. At least I can rotate them and have "even" wear...

    Backspacing help

    I did that's part of the issue. When I talked to them the answer changes dependingon the support person. I know I'll need a spacer in the rear with a square(all 4 the same) setup at 4.5" BS. Most of the lowering spindles move track width out a hair except CPP which brings it in. Knowing I'd...

    Backspacing help

    The Sprint 20" x 8.5" w/ 4.5" backspacing. I measured rotor face to inner fender contact point at 10.75" and rotor face to outer fender lip at 6". There's a middle ground backspacing 4.75" available also.

    Backspacing help

    So I ordered 20 x 8.5 w/ 4.5 backspacing and now am a little panicked. Doing a 4/6 static drop(spindles/springs & flip) in the future with what I assume will be stock track width front and rear. Am I going to rub control arm or fender? I've called all the "experts" at the spindle and wheel...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Cyber Monday was surprisingly good at Holley. Buy two get two free you say? Well sh!t, you can't argue with that!! So, Skoden is getting new shoes for Christmas. I hemmed and hawed about the backspacing, but only for a bit. My options were 4.5" or 4.75" and it shouldn't really make much...
