Thanks Captain! I appreciate all the information you share

Todd46, you could do an easy(ish) mini-tub & fit 10's but would still want 6"bs so things clear. I've sold multiple sets of fleetside wheel tubs to step-side guys. Center & set them in place against the bedside wall & floor to mark the area the wood floor needs to be trimmed back. trim the floor. Mark & drill some holes. Some cutting & drilling & bolt the tubs in. You do lose bed space so 4x8 sheets of plywood would have to ride on top of the tubs but your truck can still do truck stuff.

Wheel Vintiques does custom back space set-ups for $25/wheel on top of their regular price (they did this for me in 2018).
