fitting 15" wheels on 06 taco??

Sorry, as I'm sure this has been adressed, but I don't have the time to search for it. I've got an 06 DC 4x4 obviously 6 lug... I found a set of 15x10 cragar soft 8's for $80 in like new condition. I'm running 1.5" wheel spacers now and am wondering if the 15's will clear with the spacers on? Any help is much appreciated. Not sure of the backspacing or offset as the guy says he doesn't have a tape measure.

If your Taco came stock with 16" rims then "No".
If your Taco cam stock with 15" rims then "Maybe".

what's the major issue with the clearance?? Is it the calipers? If so, is there enough material that they could be ground down and clearanced?

Good news, the 15x10 cragar soft 8's with 4.25" backspacing fit with the 1.5" wheel spacers. I have to grind about 1/8" of caliper, but it's in the thick part on the corner edge so I don't think it's an issue. The wheels stick out about 5" past the fender, so I definitely need to address the height of my truck so I can run wide tires without looking goofy. I'm interested in a 1.5" or 2" body lift as I don't feel like tearing my suspension back apart... and I'm weary of cutting my crossmember for the 6" lift. So with my 3" suspension lift and a 2" body lift, totaling 5", would that be enough to run 33x12.50's or 33x13.50's??
