Wheel sizing/offset + CPP rear disc brake

So, I picked up my freshly rebuilt 12 bolt (Eaton posi, 3.55 gearing, new 6 lug axles, extra capacity aluminum diff cover, etc) and went to throw a set of steelies I have laying around as shop rollers.

With the rear discs from CPP (same as this http://www.classicperform.com/Store/...no/1012RBP.htm ) the stock steel wheels aren't fitting.

What backspacing/minimum size wheel am I looking at for correct fitment?

Any backspacing should fit as rollers. I was told 17" plus for my cpp big disk brake kit as far as minimum diameter. From what most guys say your looking for a 10 at 5-5.5" bs

Thanks! That's what I thought, but wanted to make sure as I dropped off a set of 15x10 truck rallies off at the powdercoaters on the way to pick up the rear end. If they weren't going to fit I would have had a phone call to make!

Just make sure the diameter of your wheel clears your calipers
