Russ,
Sweet looking truck!
I'm building a '67 step right now and am curious about your rear tire and wheel clearance to bed and fender lips.
I just installed some 18x9's with 5" BS. They are about 1/2" away from the bed, and have plenty of room on the outside. You must have similar clearance on the inside as I do, but you are filling the wheel well on the outside due to the 10" wide wheel. Do you ever rub? Mine is not a running truck yet, so can't test.
Russ

I had to roll the inside lip of the fenders and dial the side to side alignment, but no rubbing issues after that. Good luck on your build!
