I hear you can run a 15x 10 inch rim on the rear of a 72 road runner with 5 1/2 inch backspace but then a 275-60/15 tire is the best choice...Anyone have pics or experience with this size??

If you love someone set them free.. If they come back it means nobody else wanted them either..!!

Why go all the way to a 10" rim to only run a 275/60/15? You can squeeze way bigger tire back there.
You suggesting the 295-50/15??? The 275 is taller...fills up the wheel well better IMO..The 295 is wider but you can see the top of the tire in the wheel well

My next set will be a BFG silvertown 285/70 15 -around 30" tall.About 200 each from summit. I looked at the 295/50s and found them too short looking for the big "B" wells. IMHO
