I'm new to site. I have 84 want to do a 2/4 drop with spindles but I also want to fill the wheel well. What size tire and rims should i use, but i don't want to be scubbing and rubbing when i make turns. Can you help me.

If you are only going to drop 2in in the front you really dont "need" drop spindles, you can save some $$$ and just cut one round off the stock springs. Below is a before and after pics of a 2in spring drop.

What diameter wheels do you want to run?
