I have an 02 rc with 3/5 djm kit and 255/45/18 and i have no problem....and it sits dead level. as far as the 55 series...i dont think you will have a problem, but you won't have much of a gap for any serious bumps.

If you are going to do a 3/5 drop it better include a c-notching the rear. If you don't your frame will be sitting on your axle. I did a chassis tech 3/4 drop and I only had about an inch and a half clearance between the frame and the axle, that's with pancake bumpstops. I put in a c-notch and currently have no problems. If you c-notch the rear, you should be ok.
