Alvin,

Thanks for the info.....

One small point, the hub (centre of the wheel)  to fender gap is not
related to the size of the wheels/tyres...

It will be the same regardless of the tire/wheel combo....

Cheers,

BTW Like your models....

Sel, I measured my stock and comp springs. Stock is 10.5" and comp is 9.5".

The spring rate for stock is 570lbs/in and comp is 862lbs/in.
About measuring hub-to-fender distance: it depends on the tire/wheel you
are
running. I had a 2.75" gap between the top of my tire and the fender lip
with 205/60/14 tires/stock springs.
