I am running a 72 12 bolt in my 79 wagon i want to run a 10-1/2 inch slick on a set of prostars can anyone point me in the direction of a wheel and tire combo that would fit.

Here is my idea anyway

15x8 prostars 5.5 backspace
Mickey thompson 28x10.5x15

will that work, and if not what will?

how are you guys getting a 28.10.5 to fit with a 6.5 bs? i tried with a 10inch wheel, and there is no way that its gonna work with a stock frame. the tire was smucshed up against the frame and the frame needed to go in atleast a 1/2inch. i think my 12 bolt came out of a 68. is there that much of a difference?
