Biggest front tires with 2 inch drop?
What can I fit in the front that wont rub with a 2 inch drop up front? Will 255's fit or will I have to go with 245's? BTW, I have the quick ratio steering box and orginal 16 inch wheels.

I have the same box and wheel combo but only have the Pro-Kit advertised 1" drop and I'm close to rubbing with my 245s. I don't think you can go much bigger than that.

When turned to the right and at lock, I have about 1/4-1/2" between the tire and the inner fender skirt-thingy/GFX.

I think you can always take a heat gun and mold the plastic inner fender skirt to give you the clearance you need for the 255's. If I remember correctly someone talked about doing that to get 275's on the front before.
