Can I run these rims?
Ok, I have an '84 swb, I am wondering if I can run 15x7 4 inch backspace and 15x8 4 1/2 inch backspace. Two are multilug 4 1/2 & two are 5x5.
Also, one rim has a dent, will this cause air lost? Is it possible that I can recycle my 295/50/15 on the 15x8? What size tire can I run in front, without changing my stance as I want to keep it leveled out. They're boyds if that helps. Thanks for the advice, as I know nothing about rims/tire compatibility.

Sounds like 2 aren't gonna fit, and one has a dent in it, it could be bent out of whack. I believe I would pass.

I agree, if two of the wheels are multilug 4 1/2 the other pattern on those wheels is most likely 4 3/4, but even worse one wheel is bent. Pass on those. Btw a 295/50/15 will fit on an 8in wide rim.
