Ok I have a 85 2wd long bed. I want to know if I can run 15x10eagle alloys with 3 5/8 back spacing on the rear, and 15x8 3 1/4 backspaing up front. The rear tires will be 295/50/15 and fronts will be 235/60/15 this truck WILL have a 4/6 drop soon. That is the most backspacing I can find with those wheels, so will they tuck up in the fenders nice? I have tried to figure it out by measuring and it looks like they wont fit. Please reply if you know if they will or not. Thanks

Negative, you need at least 5 on a 10" rim on the back. Best way to figure out is measure the space you have now and figure at leas 1-1.5" clearance on front and backside of the tire. The fronts might work, but again, I would measure.

How about if I go with the 16in rims with the 10s having 4.5bs and the 8s 4in bs, then running a 295/50/16 and a 265/60/16, the only problem with this is that the front tires will be 1in taller. Will this look weird? Thats the shortest tire I can find for the 16in
. SO this means that if I want the same height I cant use 15s or 16s. Im really starting to get dissapointed about this...

What are you wanting to do? I would find someone that offers the size you want in the backspacing you need if you are wanting something specific.
