i thought i read somewhere that the 15x8 ralleys were 4" backspacing?....i like the way they fit, the lip is still intact on the fender to, but it does rub if i hit a big bump off camber or if i have some people riding in the back and hit a decent bump in the road

+1 here also, I have rolled fender lips though with 275/60/15 it is still tight for a trip to the lake with equipment in the trunk, full gas tank, wife and three kids. I am going with 255's ASAP so absolutely no issues come up again. :lol: 8)

I was just looking at those for my Bu. I want 15x10's in the back and 15x6 in front, but I am not sure what backspace to run.
