Anybody running American racing nv510s??

Curious if anybody was running these and if they are what size. My truck is lowered 4.5/5. I'm thinking of going with 18x8s up front and 18x10s out back. Also for the guys running 18x10s what is your backspacing/tire combo?

Thanks in advance

What year truck?

67-early 70's vs late 70-72 had different width rear-ends which impacts back-spacing numbers. You need to keep this in mind when going by someone else's combo.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

If it was my truck (like my old 'Bronze-Beater'), I would want an 8" w/a 5" back space up front (stock style drop spindle/disc brake set-up) & 10" w/a 5"BS out back (narrower 'early' housing).

This would allow good clearance on the outside edge of things while compensating for the track width increase the disc brake spindle causes.
