Depends on what rearend you have hung under there. I have a early model 8.5 so my wheels are 15x8 with a 5.5" backspace.

Billy Pires also asked this, and on mine, 10" wheel, 5.5 bs on standard width 8.5 10 bolt. 1/4" spacer on one side to even it as standard g body housings are offset roughly 3/8"
