15x10 rear wheel on s10 swap

hi all! i'm about about to start on my 50 that i am doing an s10 frame swap on and i was wonderng if anyone is running a 15x10 rear wheel on a simmilar setup without putting in new wheel tubs? if so what backspace are they. i have found a good price on a set of wheels that i think will work, but am unable to get any kind of measurements myself as my swap hasn't even began yet. thanks in advance.

I don't think that you will have enough room between the bed and the fender. Measure the distance between the outside of the fender to the inside of the bed side. I ran a 10" wide rim and I needed to add 2 3/4 mini tubs for clearance.

I can't help with backspacing as my frame is not an s-10 it is a G-body.

Good luck
Marc
