Wheel Size and offset

I know this has to be covered here somewhere, but I have searched and searched. I've tried just using a tape measurer and figuring it out, but i'm uncertain.
I have a 64' that i'm building. I have some 22's with 6" backspacing plus 1.25" adapters. That puts my backspacing up to 7.25". I think the wheels are 9" wide.
I'll be laying frame with a dropmember. I'm also hoping to use a 71' rear axle so it's a little wider.
I already know how much work is involved and I'm capable of doing it. I'm just wondering with this setup if my wheels will be inward of the edge of the hood or not.

I'd just bolt them up, but the truck is completely torn apart and the frame is on the chassis table gettin the notch, etc etc.
