Default wheel issues

My wheels were supposed to be in today, but I found out that they will not be in until Wednesday. I am starting to get concerned about how they are going to look or if they will rub? Does anyone else have 16x8 wheels with 5 inch backspacing and 305/70r16 tires? If so, do you have any issues?...better yet, do you have pics??

I have 16 x 10 wheels with 305/70/16 BFG A/T. Don't know what the backspacing is but they are Procomp 6059.

I have Cragar 16x8 with 5 in of backspacing, 285/75/16 tires with no rubbing. Your tires will be about 1/2 inch wider on both sides. Mine is lifted 1 3/4 inch though.
