That doesn’t sound close to correct. A 14-inch spacing with about 9-inch wide tire would leave 5 inches between tires.
Ford specifications for E-Series wheels is 5.15 inches of nominal offset. Since a 225 MM wide tire should be just under +/- 9-inches wide (nominal), there should be just under 1-1/2 inches of space between tires other than at ground. That’s a quick way to check that you have correct wheel spacing. It also assumes you haven’t increased tire size.
