70' C10 will this wheel offset look ok question?

Got a line on a nice set of 6lugs or my new c10. Need opinions as to if this will look ridiculous. He is my question though. They are 9.5" wide with a 4" offset. Now keep in mind this is a factor ride height truck but I plan on lowering it 1F3R in the future. I know stock wheels are 8" wide with a 4" offset. So in my quick thoughts these new wheels would push to the outside toward the fenders 1.5"? I can't remember if the entire width difference will be outward however. Seems I remember the difference being split and I would also have more rim on the inner side giving chance of rubbing on control arms, stop bumps yata yata. Just need some confirmation.

Thanks for your time guys,

Adam

Do you mean 4" backspace or 4" offset.
They are too different things.

Good question. I am referring to 4" backspace. Had the seller measure the wheel based off the exact pic you have there on the top.

Definitely too wide for the front on a lowered truck.
I would pass.

Are these 15" wheels?
