for 24"s i probably wouldn't go any lower than a 3/5 drop.
As far as tire size I'll let someone else suggest on that one. I had 275/55/20's and I put them on a truck with a 4/6 and they rubbed BAD. So for a 24" wheel i'ma say close to a 245/35? not too sure tho.

i agree with that. but i dont think you will be able to do a 3/5 with 24s. i think that a 2/4 on 24s is pretty damn close.

One thing that does help is to know what truck your talking about. There's 4 vehicles in your sig. the NNBS can go a little lower than the NBS trucks.

I assume the 08 silvy?

if your going with the NNBS i would go with the McGuaghys 5/7 drop w/24's.

As far the pic above with the 24'sx10. They tuck cuz they billet wheels(custome offset).

My buddy has a CC nbs w/3/5 drop on 24's they rub alittle.
