rear fender well clearance

If i put 22x10 rims on the rear and lower the rear using air with the stock trailing arms and all nuthin fancy, but i will be raising bed about 3-4 inches to get maximum drop of bags, will i need to widen the factory wheel housings or can they accomodate 10 inch rim width?

I don't have 22's but I do have 10" wide rims and they fit the stock wheel wells.

Re: rear fender well clearance

There are several guys on here running 10" wide rims, the offset will be the main issue. Need to have the info. on that. And from what i've read, even then every truck can be slightly different. What rear end are you running? THat can make a difference as well as they are differing widths based on the year/type.

Re: rear fender well clearance

i have a 12 bolt with a 373 ratio, anyway the wheel people are now telling me they can't get me a 10 inch wheel unless i run a 5 on4.5 bolt pattern now. i'm not sure if i want to do that i may just go with the 5 on 5 pattern that i have and get a 9.5 inch wheel.
