Those rims will be coo, but personally, I would just get a set of 325/50 15 Drag Radials...

I would run 1" more than factory. I think factory BS'ing is 4.5"...so I would run 5.5" BS'ing. The rears of our trucks have a narrower track width than the front, so by running another 1" BS'ing on the outside, it will make the wheels fit the wheel well better.

BTW, I am running Pro Stars too...10" rear, 7" front. You can no longer buy 5 on 5 Pro Stars new either...Weld quit making them.
