Default Staggered Wheels w/No Mods?

I was wondering about what I can use when it comes to tire/wheel combo that will not rub in the front or rear. got a 95 1500 RWD, but gives the best Muscle Truck Look.

2wd makes it easier..... just stick with close to stock backspacing, and you should be ok, provided you don't go with HUGE tires...... What size did you have in mind? (and what was stock?)

According to theory, 3rd gen 20's will fit, with a bit of work.... (hub diameter doesn't match up, so, need to machine the wheels, or the hubs on the truck, to get 'em to fit nicely.)

But, I think, at stock ride hit, if you stay under about 32" overall diameter, and stock backspacing, pretty much anything you want will fit. (up to *maybe* 10" rims, and even 10" may be pressing it.)
