22" Boss 338 wheels with 5.74" Backspacing on 72 C10

Anyone running the 22" Boss 338 wheels on 1972 C10? Just wondering about any clearance issues running the 22x9.5 with the 5.74" backspacing and a 285/35/22 Nitto tire with a stock 12 bolt rear end?

I am wanting to lay the frame out and worried the tires will hit the outer quarters.

Thanks

They won't hit the quarters.
If anything they will be too far in.
(approximately 1/4"-3/4")

What rear suspension do you have?

I wonder how much lip these have? or if they just have extra padding like the 20" wheels have.

You won't be hitting the outer bedside.
I predict you will need to move the wheels out 3/4".

You might get by running a 1" spacer.

I just looked and I didn't see a part number for 22x9.5 (5 on 5)in grey? Does any have the number? I think we are going to put them on my brothers 65 step.
