Changed my lift order to the 4" going with 35's, question

I know a lot of people run 4" and 35"s that it won't rub on the road usually etcetc.

If I upgrade my wheels to mickey thompson classic II's I plan on going to a 15x10 wheel. Will this also not rub on the road lock to lock?

I know it depends on the tires etc but on average does the 10" wheel cause that much more rubbing?

If so I'll stick with the stock 8" ralleys.

base your wheel width on tread width not tire height or lift height
