Wanting to put 15x10 wheels in the back, what backing is recommended, truck has Ridetech Coilovers with 7" drop in the back, am I able to run them without wheel tubs?

Re: 15 x 10 wheels

My short box is stock which may not help you a whole lot, but my 10" wide rims have 4.5" backspacing and fit perfect.

Thanks, they are Wheel Vintiques. As for the OP they only rub when I have a few hundred pounds in the bed.
