On the '84, the 14" won't fit. They won't clear the brake caliper.
Not sure what sizes the Supremes are available in but you'll need 15".
I had a set of supremes on our '94 with about a 3" drop. They were 15x7 w/3.5"BS but, even with 205's, I had fender rub.
Not sure if the Supremes in 6" width are available with more BS are not.
We run 5.5" wide steel rallys now with a slight positive offset and 215/75's LTX with no touch/no problems.....

Supremes on your lowered big Chevy should look great!

Sorry I can't contribute but please let us know what you come up with!

Thanks for that ,I didn't even think about the calipers hitting (that;s why i asked) i look into the 5.5 astro . was thinking 14 up front to try and avoid rubbing problems .
