BACKSPACE QUESTION FOR 1969 C-10 dropped with pwr disk upfront
Can anyone help me with backspacing for rims for a 69 C-10 2WD fleetside longbed with 2 1/2" drop spindles, disc brakes upfront and 4" drop in the rear. Thanks!

I see a lot of guys use an 8" rim with 4" BS for the front and a 10" rim with a 5" BS on the rear.
