I run a 15x 8 x 4.75 B/S rim. Its a special order torque thrust, CL205 series. The tires are 275x60s. No rubbing. IF I remember correctly, I got about 1/2 between the tire and the leaf spring, so there is room to go.

I wouldn't cut it any closer than that. Tire sidewalls can deflect quite a bit under hard cornering.
