I doubt it, but call them. They know C10's real well.

You'll have to narrow the rearend approximately 5" each side because Coys only offers them in a couple of back spacing options (5,4.5??). This wil probably necessitate some frame modifications, but I'm not sure exactly what. If you go with a wheel that offers more back spacing options, you could do it with out narrowing the rear. I have 20x12's (7" bs) on the back of my truck and the only modifications are widened tub and removed the bump stop bracket.

Re: 20x14 coys

I'm running 18x12's with 7" bs also - there is plenty of clearance between the inside of my wheels and the frame rails, easily 3+ inches. You could always get the Coys and have them widened toward the inside like I did with my Boss 338's. I will say that careful use of a measuring tape will be your best friend in trying to find out what will work on your particular truck.
