A 15x8 will come close to the edge of the upper control arm. With the 73-76 A-body disk brake swap, they do not rub with 15x8 rims with 4.5 backspacing. I've ran that setup for years. But I did have a tire blowout on the freeway and I drove it to get off the freeway on the rim with a destroyed tire. That knocked a wheel weight off.
