in a 15x10 you can but not advisable to go 10s when only running tyres 12.5 wide

I ran 15 x 10's on my 33's for about 3 years, never had any problems (ran them 10psi off road and only pushed them once off the bead)

But 15 x 8" lancruiser wheels are better suited, makes it harder to roll tyre off the bead and they bag out better...

I also needed to pull the tyres back into the guards a bit... cops did not like them.

on my '93 lux. i had 33x12.5 on 15x8 -22 sunnies. with a 2inch body and 2inch sus and diff moved forward an inch. the tyres fouled on the leaves on full lock and when under a bit of compression. if your planing to use it off road regularily, i would recommend a slightly larger offset. i know in pro comp steelies you can get up to -50 in a 15x8. but i dont think you'd need to go to that extreme. somewhere around -30 i think would do it
