I've seen some 15x6 and 15x7 4x4.25 steel rims. A 275 might fit on the 7.

Hmmm, ok, I was thinking about running them on the back of my car.
But I want them to be able to run 275's and for the mean time. 4 lug.

Ok, well heres another question.
Im picking up some 10 holes for the car to.
And I was reading the specs and shit for the M/T 275's and they can work with a rim from 7.5-9.5" .. But how wide are the 10 holes? Also, is there enough backspacing and what not.. Or am I going to be rubbing and all that shit?

Brett!

Even on a 8" rim the 275 fit for crap, the whole tire ends up bowing upward(like a smiley), then you dont even get to use the whole tread evenly.
