15x10 Backspacing

Hey Guys, I've just about decided that I'm going to run 15x8's up front with 255/60's and 15x10's out back with 295/50's. The wheels I'm thinking about have 4" BS... Is that going to cause a clearance issue out back? I know J Knight runs 15x10's with 5" BS on 295's but the wheels I want are only made with 4" BS. Oh, and although its at stock height, a 3/5 drop is in the plans.

Thanks in advance,

Matt

EDIT: Just FYI, my truck is an '84 2wd Fleetside Silverado.
