More 4x4 people ripping on lowered trucks - shocker! A 2-4 drop with 24s would sit perfect. Of course until you decide to bag it and stock floor it! HAHA It never ends.......
Let's assume I was going to do a 2/3 or 2/4 drop on my 06 Titan. Is it necessary to move up in tire size from the stock tires or is that simple a personal preference? I need the capability to tow 4000# without trouble.
I voted for the 4/6 kit, because it actually seems the right hieght for what I want. I use my truck in a manner more along the lines of what you use sports cars for. Meaning I like to take corners in a vehicle not meant to corner like that. So a good lowering kit, and hopefully with some form of adjustability, would be friggin awesome. As for the arguement of lift versus lower: 2wd=lowered, 4wd=lifted. Simple.

You don't have to go with bigger tires it is preference to fill the wheel well. I have 20s on mine as I didn't want to get too heavy of a tire. I also tow my 8000+lb toy hauler and quads without issue. I have the 2/3 drop and posted pictures in the suspension section. Just search for threads started by me as I only started a few and you can see some of the pics.
speed - the most you can do without some major fab is a 2-3 mcgaughy kit. anything more and it will hit the bumpstops front and back.
trojan - the thread clearly asks about lowering kits and what people interested in lowered kits would prefer in regards to size. for you to come and crap on his thread by voicing your personal preference was pretty shltty of you.
for those that are interested in lowering your T check out these threads:
Trojan hasn't posted here since Jan. '06, and made those posts back in 2004.
For the most part his statements were true, as far as, not many TT members wanting to lower their Titans back then, and not lowering was one of the options of this poll.

Depends on the use. There are lots of Titan owners running 2wds in the desert, while not real big lifts ... they're setup for maximum wheel travel, and are better suited for this than a 4x4, [fairly soon though, PRG will have a mid travel suspension setup for 4x4s].
ha i let Gary from NCD drive my truck and he almost sh** himself lol. First thing he said to his guys when he got out was, "ok lower my truck" lol. I bet it was a huge difference after driing around on 37's . Now im gunna help him get more power outta that monster

Okay, they are the exception to my stated rule. I understand that some people use them for prerunning. I like prerunners, but due to my location I can't go prerunning. Plus, I'm into low vehicles.
