ridler wheels 18x8 / 18x9.5

ive searched here in the forums and online but was wondering if anybody was running the 18x8 on the front and 18x9.5 on the rear of a reg cab swb.
with 4/6 drop pics would be appreciated.
this is what i am wanting to run on my 95 gmc 1500. just picked this up last night and ordered the djm 4/6 drop kit. was thinking about 235/40/18 bfg comp II's on the front and 275/40/18 comp II's on the rear
anybody think i will have fitment issues?
thanks for the help

Re: ridler wheels 18x8 / 18x9.5

the rears are a 5.5 backspace and the wheels are ridler 695's with a +6mm offset. i am hoping they will give me the look im after and fit properly. the front i know will fit just fine but the rears are what i am questioning.

thank you.

I know we aren't comparing apples to apples but I tried the Ridler 645s in a 20x10 w/ a 5.5 BS running a 275/40r20 and it tore up the tire.

Although I'm pretty sure mine is lower than 6 in the rear.
