ok, we're looking at ordering the rear welds. 15x10s we're hoping. i think it needs a 6.5 backspacing and to flip the quad shock if i remember correctly, and we're looking at throwing a 325/50/15 tire. i think its 12 inches wide, 28 inches tall. will this set up fit no problems besides flipping the quad shock?

rim size and backspacing you have chosen is correct. Only other hting you may need to worry about it rolling the fender lip and "massaging" the inner fender well.
