LOL yeah, your options for a 10" wheel that doesn't stick out is...BOGART

or

5lug swap.

5 lug swap gives you tons of options

Soft 8s are HEAVY! And the only option for a 10" wheel is to get the 8s with 5.5 BS and widen them 2"

I ran 15x8 soft 8s with 275/60s with a 7" rear drop. Rolled fender lips cleared them just fine!
