10" wide wheels on a stepside?

Who's got 10" wide wheels on the rear of a lowered stepside? What size tire etc....? I know this type of stuff gets beat to death but some pics will help me decide if I should buy a set of wheels from a friend. I've always like the looks of slotted mags, even before they were out of date enough to be considered "retro". So let's see what cha got.

17x9.5 with a 275/45. tires are just short of 11" wide. I'm not sure what the BS is but the tuck up in there just fine. First one is with 5" drop springs, second and third is bagged and fourth is heated springs.
