wheel vintiques 15x10

I got my rearend back in today, and bolted up my new set of wheel vintiques rallys 15x10 with 4.5 backspacing. I measured the distance from the inner lip of the wheel to the wheel well, and looks like a inch. Is that going to work? Any body have any pictures of there trucks with these wheels on it. I have a 4-6 drop with 2.5 drop spindles. Thanks,

Re: wheel vintiques 15x10

Should be OK out back as long as nothing rubs, Bad News no workie upfront, 15" X 10" with 4.5 backspace is too wide it won't clear the tie-rod end and steering knuckle. The 15 X 8" with a 4.00 back space barely clears (1/2" -3/4") it up front, the wheel pictured even though its not a Rally 3was to test fit and its a 4" back space 15" X 8" Good luck

Mines a 2-1/2" drop with spindles only in front and removed some leafs in the back still want to go lower in back. Running 15 X 8 Vintique rallys all around with 275-60-15 BFGs no problems

I have 15X10s on all for corners of my 69. I can't remember the back spacing but I have no problems with clearance.

Re: wheel vintiques 15x10

I just bought the wheel Vintiques 15 by 10 smoothies also. I mounted 255 70 15 on them in bolted thrm to the stock 67 rear end.. Great with no issues at all. stepside bed just like yours. I am kind of bugged though because sumit told me they would be able to hold my 67 dog dishes but they do not have the nubs for that
now I am going to have to buy 2 more wheels vitiques for the front most likely 15x6 and find a new style center cap I like
