15x10 require a 7.5bs and the 15x8 use the 5.5bs. So a 15x10 with a 5.5bs would be incorrect for ur car if its a stock length rear.

All of the Weld RT-S wheels in medium pad will clear the stock brakes. Back spacing will not play a role in clearance. Post the pics when on!!

15x10 with 5.5 BS on a rear narrowed 2" per side might stick out a little. I run the same wheels on my car and it's narrowed 3" per side and the wheels just tuck under the fender.





Just picture the rear wheels on my car moved out another inch and that's what yours will look like.
