Default Please help with wheel selection

I have a Moser 9" that was narrowed 3.5 on each side. I got a great deal on it, as it came with offset lca's and the strange brake package as well. I would like to run a 15x10 rear wheel with a 295/55/15 Mickey Thompson Et radial but would really like to see a 17x4 in the front. Just got a 400 swap as well so money is a little tight. Question is, what back spacing do I need to run? What are my choices for wheels in my specific sizes? Thanks for any help, jim

If you took 3.5" off each side you would need a 4" Backspace. My 15x10's have a 7.5" BS and my rear is stock width. Subtract 3.5 from 7.5 and there you go. 4".
