Exclamation 20 x 10 show wheels streeter

I bought a ser of show wheels streeter, 20x8.5 for the front and 20x10 for the rear. I try them today without tires and the rear wheels appear that they will rub the tire against the fenders. The truck is a 66 step side, if I remember correctly, the only modification I did to the rear was to use a drop spring, don't remember if it was 1" drop or 2". Who has use 20" x 10" wheels on the rear without any problems. It appears that I will have to return the rear wheels and order another 2 - 20x8.5.

Thanks

What is the backspacing on the rear wheels? If you order the same wheels with MORE backspacing then they will tuck inside the rear fender more and you might be able to use a 10" wheel.

The offset is 0, actually when I measure the wheel in the truck, it appears that the wheel is center inside the fender, so I believe the tire will rub the fender and the bed.. If anyone has use this setup any help please, otherwise I'm returning the wheels tomorrow.

Thanks
