Default How wide can I run in the back?

In the rear I am running an Eibach pro kit, removed quad shocks, upper/lower control arms, and a 15x9 Weld Pro Star wrapped in 275/60/15 ET Street Radials. I am getting rub, but will be rolling my fenders here soon. For those of you running a 15x10, first off are you running a 6.5 backspace instead of the 5.5 as you would on a 15x8? Also, what size tires are you running on a 15x10 without running into problems? Any pics would be appreciated!

Thanks a lot for the props. from 20mph I'm still blowing these off on the street, I know its just on the street and it wont dead hook, but I think going with a 15x10 and those 295's will help a lot
