4/6 daily driver?
Think I'm finally ready to drop my truck but I can't decide how much drop for my daily driver. I'm torn between the two normal options, a 2/4 or a 4/6. I thought about a 3/5 but if I'm going to have to notch the frame I may as well go 4/6.
So my questions are: Who daily drives on a 4/6 drop? Do you have any ground clearance problems? What tire size for 22x9.5" wheels? I currently run 285/35/22s but I'm not sure if they will work with a 4/6. If you have a 4/6 drop on your daily do you wish you went with a 2/4? I guess I'm leaning towards a 2/4 but I'm afraid I'll just wish I went lower. Thanks for the input.

I dd my truck with a 6/8 drop...My drop consists of DJM 4" lca's, McGaughys 2" spindles....4" Shackles/hangers, and 4" McGaughys leafs...It rides really good , but I have custom shocks front/rear
-But there are road hazards that get in the way daily...kinda get used to it..I run 17" Denali wheels now with a 275/55/17..They account for alot of my smooth ride...Getting the 18" Denali 6 spokes soon..

3/5 or 4/6, 2/4 will just **** you off imho and you will feel violated and think your money was stolen from you because people will be like man you have a nice looking truck why don't you lower it...
I have always driven 4/6s on my trucks that were lowered, but I have never ran 22s with them, it may be close.
I would say that on a 3/5 or 3/6 you should be okay.
I have a 2010 CC and it's lowered 4/6, I run 275/55/20s up front and 305/50/20s in the rear. I have zero clearance or rubbing problems under 99.9% of the driving I do.
The only time I have any issues is if I have 4 or more people in the truck and I am on the freeway cruising at let's say 70+ mph and I hit big dips then the front tires rub on the fender wells very slightly.
I would think you would be okay for sure at the 3/6, how much clearance do you have with the 22s now?

I have a 4/6 05 cc with 275/45/20 and drive it daily and dont have many problems. I just have to be careful on bad roads. also in alot of parking lots I have to park backwards because of the cement blocks, my bumper has gotten stuck a few times. Other than that its a smooth ride.
