How much trimming will need to be done to clear a 265-35-22 with a 6" front drop? Pictures of what was trimmed would be great

I am running a 225/75r16 on the front of mine with a 6" static and it clears no problem... But with the offset change and extra width I am not sure what it might get into...

My front tires are .1 inch taller than that, you are going to have to tub it. And if you hit a big bump you are going to hit the a/c.

by "tub it" I assume you mean the inner fenders? I'm not worried about rubbing on the inners I've already pulled them out. I'm more concerned about the tire getting into the fender itself.

My truck is an 88

You will have to cut on the inside of the fender, not the lip.
