How about some pics of rear ends ...... with fat tires.
I want to put wider tires on the rear of my '69 short step. Currently have 275/60/15's on 10 inch wheels. They are almost touching the inner and outer edges of the fender. I want to cut out the bed sides and put wheel tubs in the bed. I'm having trouble finding wheels with enough back space - the whole back space / offset thing confuses me a little.

I don't want to narrow the rear and would like to stay with the 6 lug axels. Any thought or suggestions?
