Hey Guys...I am looking to go with some old school slotted mags...the US Mags indy...15X9 on the front and 15X10 in the rear....78 C10 2wd Big ten. The 15X9 shows a -12 offset 4.5 backspacing...test fitting one, I find the outer part of the tie rod end at the knuckle just barely touches the inside of the wheel...it is so slight that I would think you could kiss the rod end with a grinder and it would clear.

Anyone have experience using the 15X9 4.50 on the front, 15X10 3.50 on the back?
