Tire Size question

I have a 68 chevy with leafs in the rear and im looking to run 22s. im gonna drop the rear 2in with shackles. my question is...could i run a 305/40-22 on the rear? or is that too big? im thinking its gonna be too big. I have 2 brand new ones sitting here at the house and thought i could put them to some good use.
Also any pics with trucks running 22s would be nice. thanks

Re: Tire Size question

I've got 265/35/22 on the rear of mine, it's pretty tight in the wheel well already, not sure a 305 would fit, you can check my build thread to see pics of them

Re: Tire Size question

I think they would fit with only a 2'' drop on the right wheel,... but I think they will look huge.
