I'd say 4" or 4.25" BS but wait to hear if somebody else is running this.

Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.

Someone here just put a 315 on his car...who was that?  Find out his bs and subtract 1 inch.  4 - 4.5 is likely your target.  Do they even have that for a 15x10?

There's always spacers...  :icon_smile_big: 

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I just put 315 35 17 tires on 17x11 wheels on mine.  Backspacing was 5.5".  Mine runs the stock axle though non dana rear.  I used Nitto 555R tires which tend to run slightly narrower than other brands, people who used to own 04 cobras used to put them on 9 inch stock rims but thought that would be pushing things a little so go larger. I'd probably recommend 10 or 10.5 inch rims minimum with those tires.  Other brand tires will usually be slightly wider.  The tires look massive on the back though
69 RT/SE Y3 cream yellow w/tan vinyl top and black r/t stripe. non matching 440/375, 3:23, Column shift auto w/buddy seat, tan interior, am/fm w/fr to back fade, Now wears 17" magnum 500 rims and Nitto tires. Fresh repaint, new interior, new wheels and tires.

Measure from the wheel mounting surface of the drum to the outside of the spring perch, this will tell you how much room you have to the spring....if you know the tire bulge dimension you can compute the back spacing needed to clear the spring.
