Does anyone know where I can get a 10" rough in toilet? Rough in is the distance from the bolts to the back of the tank.

Lowes and Home Depot only sell 12" toilets, but that won't fit where I need to put it. I'm trying to get one soon so I can get the Water Sense rebate that Raleigh's offering.

Anyone know where I can get one?

If you're handy you can use a 2 inch offset flange at the floor drain to give you a standard 12"

If not get a modified toilet which is typically more expensive since they're not in mass production.

I don't mind a used one, but I bet it wouldnt qualify for the rebate. I might try the 2" offset flange, thanks for that suggestion yo.

i would highly reccomend a toto brand toilet. they're one of the best flushing low gpf toilets on the market in my opinion, and price is very reasonable. i'm pretty sure the drake model can be set at 10" as is, and many of their other models accept a unifit adapter. assuming you're not doing a complete remodel here, a unifit is a much better option than an offset flange which requires cutting off the existing flange down below the floor for installation. hit up wilkinson supply company for all of this.

if the toto isn't your thing or is too expensive, i'm pretty sure american standard's cadet model (the two piece) is offered with a tank for a 10" rough in. while their quality has definitely decreased some over the years, american standard still makes a decent unit. i was under the impression home depot and the like carried the cadet, but maybe not a 10".
