Would I be ok with 4" of backspacing on a 15"x10" wheel with a 6" RCX? Most 15x10's are 3.75" backspacing.

Out of curiosity, what is the backspacing of the stock 16"x7" wheels?

I think the stock backspacing is 4 or 4.5". I ran my friends 15x10 with 35" all terrains for a while with my 6" superlift had to trim the front bumper a little to jot rub. I can post a pic later if wanted.

Backspacing depends on the offset and width. A 15x10 with a 0+- offset would be 5.5" backspacing. Find out how much room you have in inches and I can figure out what will work.

Stock backspace is 5.5. If it were me Id look for a backspace around 4, which on a 10" wide rim would be -36 offset

The rims I'm looking at are Bart D Trucker 15x10's with 4" BS, just want to make sure they would clear everything as a standard 10" wide offset is 3.75".

I have 15x10 with 5.5 and for now I have 31" tires on it right now which is on my 93 F/S GMC truck and there fine im going to put 295/50/R15 soon that's what I have wanted in a while. Consider this if you don't want them to look wider up front have the off set different but I know nothing about that call Tire Rack or your local Discount Tire I bet they can help you.

I have 16x10 with 0 offset 5.5" bacspacing like my stock wheels. This allowed me to run 36x15.50's on 6" full drop suspension lift with light crank and mild trimming. The problem on our trucks is that the wider the tire wheel combo sticks out the sooner it will rub on the front bumper and back edge of the fender. I had to custom order the backspacing on my wheels to keep these wide tires tucked in and not rubbing when turning. 10" wheels with 4" backspacing would start rubbing with anything wider than a 35x12.50 tire, and would stick out roughly the same as my tires do.

Yeah I plan on just a 35x12.50x15. Thanks for the help! I don't think there will be any problems with the 4" backspacing.
