wheel question

What backspacing is the best to go with on a 15x8 that is not going to rub?

I've been trying to figure that out for my '72 Blazer with a 4" lift. Although, I am trying to get it for 16". I have a buddy that works at a tire store and we put on 16x8 with 3.625" backspacing and they looked pretty good. The wheel had 33" tires on them. Take it down to a tire store and see if they would be willing to mount some different rims with the size tires you need..... You will probably have to buy the rims there........

Sorry I couldn't be more help!
