    77 C10 Silverado Longbed spring rates

    Drop spindles have no effect on spring rates. They simply raise the spindle, which in turn lowers the vehicle. A drop of 1 to 1 1/2" isn't enough to warrant a shock change based solely on length. I don't know the stock spring rates but if you really want tunability a coil over conversion would...

    Biggest meat for the street

    The red truck is on 275/60s. The gold one has 255/70s. Both nice looks. The 275/60 is 28" tall and 11" wide. 255/70 is 29.1" tall and 10.2" wide. Thats in a T/A, brands vary a bit but you get the idea.

    4.5 inch backspacing on these puts them right where they need to be to fill out the wheel wells without rubbing.

    Rised white letter or blackwall

    Depends on the wheels. If I'm running a set of Cragar SS mags white letters out. On these steelies blackwalls all day long. My 77 Scottsdale.

    15x10s from Wheel Vintiques. Had to modify them a bit to clear the drums cause the wheel centers were a little different from stock.

    New guy Visalia CA

    No kidding. I grew up on 10th ave. So in doing the research I found that I can fit a 4" backspace in front by using a 1/4" spacer and I won't have to modify the spindle. Gonna use 10" steelies on the back with a 4.5 backspace. Thanks for the response, maybe we can meet up some time.

    Hey Roughneck. Beautiful truck, I'm in Kingsburg. Lowered my 77 with 2.5" drop spindles and 2" coils. Axle flip out back. How did you lower yours and still fit what look like 8" wheels up front? The drop spindles have created backspace issues for me.
