What Tire size for front? Rear looks like Im limited 305/45/17 Would like to know front tire size on stock 17x8 and how many inches to lower for best stance. Thanks in advance
 
a 305/45 is only 27.8 tall (mathematically but sometimes vary a bit from each manufacturer) so front to match would need to be a pretty short. 255/55 is 28.1, 255/50 is 27.1. but neither really have a very great selection, 255/50 seems to have better options. in my opinion the truck will need to be lowered a decent amount to pull off a small diameter tire.

Im thinking 2/4 Really dont want to lower much more than that. LMR kit or better ways to lower it?
 
If I ever get my wheels back from polishing I can show you exactly what 3/4 drop on 255/50 and 305/45 will look like… unfortunately I’m still waiting for the rear wheels.

Got my wheels back finally so here is what 10” rear looks like with 255/50/17 Nitto front, 305/45/17 Nitto rear and 3/4 drop. 1.5” spacer on the rear to flush it up with the outside fender lip.

Can you send me a pic of full truck from the front at an angle. Thank you!
 
[mention]93L #3008 [/mention] this is the closest I have to that right now without taking a new pic. This was a few years ago before 1.5” wheel spacers and 10” rear.
