Boy, did I miss the crux of this question....sorry.

I have 10-inch wide wheels with a 4.5-inch backspace. They are tucked inside the confines of the fleetside bed.

My Truck Data Book shows the exterior width of both step and fleetsides to be 79-inches, at the widest part. The illustration shows the tires to be centered on the taillights of the stepside. I don't know how much this data helps, so count me done.
