Foose legend wheels

Hi guys,
I have a 79 with a static drop of 5/7. I bought these Foose legend wheels and was wondering if they would fit. They are 20x10 out back with a 6 1/4 back spacing..the front is a 20x8.5 with a 5 1/4 back spacing. What size tires would you recommend if the rims would work for my set up.
Thanks.

If you already bought them try them on the truck. Use a straight edge to check for clearance.

Re: Foose legend wheels

The front rims are right but you need 5.5in backspace for the rear. you will need .75 -1in spacers to keep the tires/rim from rubbing the inner wheel tubs.
