I'd like to find a pair of rims in a 15X8 to mount a pair of BFG DR's on. I will go with 275/50/15.

What backspacing on the rims should I look for.
These will be going on the 88 with the BW 9 bolt with rear disk.

4.5" backspacing

 

What about 15X10 with 4.75" of backspacing? Would these be alright?

4.75" is what you should look for!!

 

on 10" you can go 5.5"

 

I had 15x10 with a 4.825" backspacing with 275/50r15 tires. The sidewall of the tire would sit flush with the lip when measured with a yardstick. No rubbing problems. 5.5" would have been better, but was unavailable in the wheel style I wanted.
