@CudaKat picked up some beautiful US Indy slot mags that are 15x8 and 15x10, and all have 3.5" backspace.  I think the fronts will fit, but I am not sure if the rears will hit the quarter panel lip with that little of backspace.  Anyone know and if so what size tires?

I love the look of those but IMO the 10" with only 3.5" back space will stick out too far ,, you need 4.5 or 5"

Yup: Or if you are going for the day 2 look you need airshocks with 300lbs of air in them and a new shock mount crossmember in a year.

You will need the 4.5 or 5" backspace and the perch relocation to even attempt that.

I don't think the fronts will fit with much of a tire on them either.

I think he is selling the 15x10, maybe a hot rodder or strip racer will pick them up.  I think we will try to 15x8's though since he has 4 of them.

I had to take a pie cut out of the front of these fenders to fit 245X60X15 on the stock 15X7 rims. So I think a 15X8 with 3.5 backspace would require quite a small tire.
