Pretty sure my 10's have 4" BS. I am running 275/60's & a 6" drop with no problems...

i also have 15x10 with 275/60 tires and they fit with no rubing, and i think the only way a 4.5 bs will would fit is if you mini tub it to the frame, but im no expert!

Here is a 10 inch rim with 285's and 4.5 backspacing however, I have the early narrower 6 lug 12 bolt. About a 1/2 inch clearance from the bed. Hope this helps.
