It really varies. The shop that is doing your air suspension should measure that for you. The wheels I have now have a +14mm offset and a 5.76 back space, but my rear fenders are trimmed. The wheels are 22x9.5.

I will be switching to a 10" wheel in the rear but the offset & back spacing need to be changed; and I will need to tub my bed fenders a bit more.

You may want to consider a type of wheel that allows for modified offsets.

baba when you lowered your truck with the flip kit did you leave the stock block in? If so if you take the block out it should raise you a couple of inches but I think it looks good anyway

Man; there are too many types of wheels to answer that question; and it really depends on your particular style.

Anything with at least a 14mm offset & 5.76 back space will tuck in the rear; no problem. You may need some camber up front; with that size. The less you can go from there the better. There is some uniqueness though, because it kinda depends on if you have your fenders trimmed or not, if you're tubbed or not and what you decide to do up front.

That should be fine because (I think) they can't be any larger than 9.5" wide and should have a low offset.

Compressors are going to be somewhat loud, regardless. I run 3 VIAIRS and you can here them, but they are not ridiculous. Actually, the fact that they are pretty audible helps me because I know the sound when all 3 are pumping and the sound if I blow a fuse and one is down.

at that rate, you might as well use an engine driven compressor. my buddy had one on his silverado and filled up a 10 gallon tank in just under a minute.

with 4 compressors I would think about upgrading your alternator and/or running a second battery.
