I used quality stuff from McGaughy's but I was wondering, do you have to cut the bump stop brackets off the lower control arms? Plus my 255/60/15 on 10" rims rub in the front. Can I use the same tires on 8" rims with success? | | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 1,756 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 1,756 | I eliminated the bump stops and run 8" rims. However I am running air baggs. | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8 | What size tires on the 8" rims?
