10" Corvette Rallys on a stepside

Is anyone running a 10 inch wheel on a stepside?
I want to use 10" rallys and 295/50 15 tires.If anyone is running this combination I would appriciate the back spacing measurement and some pics.

Re: 10" Corvette Rallys on a stepside

You might have to tub it to do that. I could only get a 245/60/15 under my stepside fenders. I also had a 4" drop in the rear with a 72 rear end. The left one scraped alittle also.

Re: 10" Corvette Rallys on a stepside

I've got 295/50-15s on the rear (15x10 smoothies), and they fit now, but I'm dropping 5" and I am POSITIVE that I'll be rolling the fenders when the truck gets the new suspension on it.

What's the backspacing of the wheels you're looking at? I believe my rears are 4-1/2" backspacing.

Looks good Java.
the wheels come with 4 1/2 or 5 inch back spacing.I think the 5" may work better but I don't know for sure.
I also dropped the rear 4".I think I'll be pushing it with the 50's but they really fill the fenders up.
