Rally wheel fitting problem
Hello, I'm hoping I can get some help. Well to start on my 71 C10 I tubbed the rear wells and am leaving the stock rear end as is so after figuring out what back space I needed for a 12 inch rim I went to Discount Tire in August and ordered two rear wheels, 15" x 12" from US Wheel. # months later they arrive on Wednesday. I have a 2 wheel drive with rear drum brakes. I ordered them with a 7 3/4" backspace. I went to test fit them this morning and they won't fit over the drum brake. The wheels taper in , in the middle. Well I went to Discount tire and they call Us wheel and basically i'm out $600.00 . They will not take them back? These are there Rally 54 Chevy truck wheels?
I know there are other members out there running the 15" Rally wheels , with the 29/15.5/15 tires, so what went wrong? Is there another source that people have used that didn't have the problem. I believe my rear drums are the 11" ones . Any help would be greatly appreciated. Totally bummed.
Thankyou, Dan
