22" rockstars question

Can I fit a 22x9.5 rockstar wheel and 325/50/22 Nitto Terra Grapplers with just a 2" AS leveling kit?

The wheels are very close in specs to what Blackout FX4 is running with his Monsters with a 2.5" leveling kit. Anyone know if they will rub with just that .5" difference in the front end?

Here are the wheel specs:
Bolt Pattern: 6 on 135
Diameter: 22.00 "
Width: 9.50 "
Backspace: 5.72
Offset: 12 mm

I've been looking around and just dont think a 20" with 305/55/20 fills out the wheel well enough

They will rub. BlackoutFX4 has 9.5. with 18mm os, and I have 9.5 with 30mm os. We both rub at some point in reverse...trimming helps. Having 1/2 inch less in lift may not be good, plus having the 12mm offset. Yea its much diff, but may make a big diff...or atleast more trimming to do.

yeah,i wouldnt try to fit them with a 2" kit.. it will rub really bad..

the 12+ offset will rub on the fender flare at the 3 o'clock position even with a 2.5" kit..

if you dont already have the leveling kit and want to make that setup work, i suggest the 3" leveling kit with the +12 offset wheels.. thats your best shot to minimize the rubbing.
