What was the back space? How many mile did you get out of them?

At least 5" - I had custom left-hand and right-hand spacers machined to make up for the crappy metric chassis variations. And I never wore the tires out before I sold it... 4-5 years of use,

Right now I have 255 60 15 with 15x7 with 3.75 backspace. But I did run 295 50 15 on a 15x10 with 3.75 or 4.5 backspace.
With no problems.
