15 x 10" wheel
Does a 10" wheel fit in the rear with a 325-15-50 tire on a '80 Stepside? any idea on the backspacing? I would have to think it would looking at all the room in the rear fenders. Last edited by Alex1; 07-31-2007 at 04:48 PM. Reason: typo |

Re: 15 x 10" wheel
I have a '79 stepper with 33x12.5x15 tires in the rear, they clear well, so will yer new rollers - just watch the backspacing, might wanna do some measuring before buying them wheels.

Re: 15 x 10" wheel
Running a 275/60/15 on the rear of my fleetside. Wheels are 15x10. If you plan to run a 15x10 in the front as well, make sure you get the offset perfect, otherwise the tires will rub...
