Just went and measured the back side of the rim. It is 5" to the outside edge of the rim where as the factory is 6" So I might be alright and not have to worry about rubbing. Or will I still have a possible problem with rubbing?

You will probably still rub when turning, most likely behind the tire. Some people fit 30's with no problem, others rub, depends on where the torsion bars are adjusted to.

Gonna be a stupid question here. But I"m not positive if it would work or not. I know you can put larger width tires on smaller rims would a 9.5 fit a 10 wheel or no?

it would look pretty wierd, the bead might not want to stay on very well, you would probably have to go with at least a 10.50 width.

That is what I was thinking. especially if the tires get aired down any.
