Default 9" or 10" wide rims?

275/50 or 60/15's on what rims?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have the option to buy 4 used Enkie 9" wides w/ 3" backspace or 8 & 10 chrome Rallys w/ 4" backspace (would have to use adapter). Would that size tire be OK with 9 wide, or is 10" better? The Einkies are expensive and very light, but I can get them for 175. 120 for the 4Rallys.

Default

Both tires would be fine on either the 9's or 10's. Probably not much noticeable difference between the two wheel sizes, but the light weight of the Enkei's will be a bigger advantage.
