Default 15x10 wheels 6.5 BS. what should i do?

i got a killer deal on some 15x10 welds, but the backspacing is 6.5. ive been searching and from what i can find, the wheel is going to stick out about an inch and look like crap. i also read that i'd be stuck using a 26'' tire which would probably rub anyways.

i'd like to do something about this, but im a newbie when it comes to wheel stuff so i need some ideas. should i flare the fenders? i also read about shortening the axles, which would compensate for the backspacing. how much would something like this cost?

i wanted to run 275 60/15 nittos, but with the 6.5 BS i guess im limited to the 50/15. if anybody has pics of a 15x10 6.5 BS running 275s, id love to see them; maybe it wont look that bad afterall

Get rid of them and buy the correct set. By the time you shorten the rearend and have the axles cut and resplined you could have bought a brand new set of rears
