20x10's or 22x9's on my 69 stepside!?!?

I' trying to decide if i should buy 20x10 coys c-5's for my 69 chevy c10 stepside or if i should stagger them and get 22x9's out back and 20x8.5's up front. So i'm hoping y'all could help me decide maybe give me your opinions and post a few pictures so i can see what it looks like before i pull the trigger on this deal. I tried searching for an older thread on the same topic but to no avail. thanks everyone!

Look at n2billets Project: Stella Mae.

On a stepside the 22x9's are about all the rear fenders have room for.
I think a 10" rim would require you to mini tub the bedsides.
Plus you need the narrower '67-(early)'70 rearend.

I'm not really lookin to drop mine as low as his. But i definitely love the look! I had previously considered a full tub and getting the 20x14's but I don't really desire to start cutting since all the panels are original.

Here's my '69 running a 4.5/6" drop (all static) with Billet Vintec's Soft Lip 20's front and rear: (Not a stepper but it is about as low as you can go without notching the frame (bolt-in c-notch).)
