11 inch wide rims on lowered truck
I have some 17" Budnik wheels that I want to stretch out to 11" wide for the rear of my truck to run a wider
tire. Will this combination fit without have to cut anything? My truck is lowered 4/6 right now. Just not sure if the width will work or not I appreciate the help

In theory you should be able to reach that 10.5-11in wide wheel with that much room still. Even with tire flex you'll have more than 1in to work with.
Shouldn't have to cut a thing because you are making the rim wider inside the wheel well and not pushing the rim outwards towards the fender.
