here is a better one, 325/50/15 on a 10" rim 4.75" back space. I have more clearance on the pass side (1") than the drivers side ( .5") I think 4.5" back space would have been better, I have the room against the lip on the quarter panel

Josh, nice Charger. After seeing your pics, it's gonna be tight if I go this route. I'd actually want a little more backspace and I would just bend that flange and probably have to offset the springs a bit.

Borrowed a 15x10 with 5.5'' backspacing to check. The tires mounted on these wheels are M/T Indy S/S N-50's which spec out at 28'' tall, 11.80'' tread and 14.10'' section width. The 325/50/15 M/T drag radials I want are 28'', 11.60'' and 13.10''. Anyways, here's a pic. The car doesn't sit as low as I thought it would considering it has -1'' Caltrac springs and 2'' blocks. I did use a 1/4'' wheel spacer to give me plenty of clearance on the back side.
