And quit guessing.

These are the Jegs rims I purchased. These are 15x8 with a 4.5 bs. They clear the frame with about 1.5 " of clearance. Not going with a super wide tire. 275x 15x8 is the max I can go without issues.

What he said is correct. a 15X10 with a 4.5 back spacing will work. What I do is look at the gbodyparts website and reference the b/s info they have on there. I'm also going to buy 10 inch wheels for my rear (not sure what style though, im on the wheel thread looking at different types). I just don't know what the wheel bolt pattern is. Good luck, when you install them can you share some pics please?

texas, the wheel bolt is 5x4.75in .... My wife bought me another set of rims for the track 15x10, 5x4.75 and B/S 7.25.... Never heard of that spacing

Thanks for the info. Hopefully I didn't confuse anyone but when I stated 4.5 I meant 4 1/2.

What sucks is they don't have it with a 4"bs.
Do you think going 10 " wide with 4.5 bs would work?

Yes it will work.
