Default Draglite width sizes

I am going to be purchasing some Weld Draglites. I am going to run a MT 275/50R15...should I use a 8 or 10 inch rim...I have heard of both....any opinions. Also what size backspacing do I need for each. Does anyone have any pics of where you have to grind the calipers down. Thanks

Run a 15x8 with 5.5" backspacing so that you won't have to grind as much as you would for the 15x10.
The 275 will work fine on the 8" rim, but if you plan on going any wider than that then go ahead and get the 10" rim for future tires up to 325 series.
