tubs for the rear inner fenders?

Anyone know where I can get larger rear inner fenders for my 71 f100? I heard I can use a 1969 c-10 part that would be wider but I'm not sure. Trying to put in some 12" rear tires.

Thanks,
JO

Seen people using replacement stock wheel well housings sectioned and grafted to the old ones.
I’m sure there are aftermarket tubs, but those would typically be the universal style that you see in hot rods.

Don’t know if they make a clean looking one made around the Ford shape, or just how much you gain by using the GM style.
How much extra space do you need?

If it was me instead of using "chevy" parts. I would go to my local Tractor Supply store and look at their trailer fenders.. Or go to a junkyard and get some Ford tubs and splice them in that would look more factory.
