I have a 2002 ranger fleetside I'm looking to build into a little street monster but I'm having a hard time finding info on what people are running for wheels. I would like to run 15x8 or 15x10 rear with 17x4.5 front with m/t Sr 28x6x17 front tire and 275 60 15 rear drag radial. Soooo question is what's a good offset and b.s. for this would like a nice fitment not tucked but not poking to much either. Any help would be great thanks!

4x4s running stock 15" rims (0 offset) were found with 265/75R15s.

That should give you reference for rear wheels: stock look would be 0 offset aka 4.5" back spacing on 15x8, 5.5" on 15x10. Adjust to taste.

I'm a frugal individual - I used Mustang spare tire rims for the fronts...

Crown Vic spares might work too.

I'm running 15x4 with 1.75'' backspace front and 15x8 with 4.5'' backspace rear.
Front tires Are 165/80/15 and Rear tires are 275/60/15
Truck has 3/4 drop DJM Dream beams and flip kit.
Front of my truck will settle down another inch or so after I roll forward.
