What back spacing are you guys using for the 8 and 10 inch rims? I am wheel hunting right now and do not know what back spacing I need to order. I don"t want to have clearence issues. The Truck is lowered 2 1/2" in the front and 3" in the rear. I plan on using BF TA's, P245x60xR15 in the front and P275x60xR15 in the rear. The wheels I'm looking at are offered in 3.75 and 4.75 in. back spacing. Oh, I have a 1969 GMC short bed with the 6 lug front disc conversion.

Thanks,
Dale
