If I were running a 8" wide rear tire Id go with 15x8 rim....the 15x10 would be too much tire roll for me. Also I used to have 15x10 rear rims with 4.5BS and a 10.5" tire. I had to trim the fender lip to get it to clear on a 72 lemans. I think I had the clearance for a 5" BS but never tried it. Or you could jack the back way up for a old school look and not have any rear tire rub. Right now I have a rear 15x8 rally 2 with 4.5BS and a 8.25" wide tire and fits good without rubbing.
