thanks for all the help guys. I'm still making a decision, I might try to find a local or a shop who will let me test fit some different sized rims and wheels to help make a decision.

Hey guys. hoping for some help here....

I am interested in putting some Cragar soft 8 wheels on my XH falcon ute. 

What I want to know is, has anyone fitted 295x50R15 tyres to 15x10 inch wheels on the back of a standard XH, and what offset/backspacing was required to make them fit?

I don't have an issue with guard rolling and spacers to make them fit. As a disclaimer, I understand all the semantics about police attention, and legalities and all that bull shit, and right now it doesn't concern me. I just want to know what will and wont fit, and how people who have made it fit have achieved it, so I can make a decision without forking out a tonne for wheels and tyres. 

In case it's relevant, I want to put 15x8's on the front with 245/255x60 tyres.

Also, I live in cairns, so if anyone knows of a local shop here that I should check out, I'd love to go and see a local shop instead of buying stuff from the sates.

I appreciate any help anyone can give, ESPECIALLY pictures, particularly of suspension componentry and inner guard clearances with those sized wheels and tyres fitted.

Cheers to anyone who helps!!!!
