15x8 = 5.5 b/s
15x10 = 6.5 or 7.5 (7.5 needs more inner fender beating)

5x4.75 bolt pattern if my scattered memory is correct.

front runners are usually a fixed backspace,i just looked in jegs and they are fixed backspace,just depends if you want the 3.5 or 4" wheel.

The front runner for 3.5 will be 1.75 back spacing with a 5/16 spacer. Also you should check out the wheel and tire section and you might find more detail info or pics.

This is a 15x10 Pro-Star with a 7.5" backspace. Going to a 6.5 is going to push it out an inch more.... depends how you want it to look.

For the full picture, click on "Trailer Queen...." in the signature.
