Hey guys !
I found the actual rims I want to buy for my truck. The wheels are a size 15x8 with a 4.5 back space. Currently I have 215/65/15 size tires on stock rims.(think they are 15x7). My question is will my current tires go on and or work well with the wheels I want to buy?
(I have a 4/6 drop)

That's a pretty skinny tire for a 8" wheel. That tire is probably best suited for a 6" wheel. 7 is probably the max for that tire. The 215 could probably be mounted on the 8" wheel but it will look a little odd.

Gotcha, what tire size would you recommend for this wheel and drop what won't give me rubbing issues?

well for 15x8 if you can 5 inch backspace would be better for your drop and a 255/60r15 tire should treat you nicely
