Max backspacing 71/72 C10 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

If anyone has any experience with the following I would greatly appreciate it before sending the wheels off to the paint shop.

I ordered a set of 15x8 wheel vintique 62 steelies for my 72 C. Backspacking is 4.25" and offset is -6mm. In a quick no tire fit the rear seem fine. However, the front look like it may be too tight when I get the tire on. I have a set of 275/60's that are on it all four corners with aluminum 3 7/8 backspacing with no issues. Truck is currently stock, but may get a set of 2.5" drop spindles.
