Lot of answers here. Some are goofy some are good. Use hardy board or dura rock. Both cut easily with an ordinary skill saw and a carbide blade. I nail it on with a roofing nailer. Use 1 3/4" roofing nails. Screws are ok but much harder to use and take a lot longer. The most important thing to consider when installing a tub is to install it so it kants toward the back wall about 3/32". See first photo. No one ever gets this right - not even professional plumbers. By kanting it back it will prevent water from spilling over the edge of the tub and onto the floor. The number ONE place where your bathroom will rot out is on the corners of the floor by the ends of the tub. A level tub or one kanted outward will be your ruin. I don't do vinyl surrounds anymore.

Steel tubs are fine for an inexpensive but long lasting job. Cast iron is better but costs about 3-4 times as much. It breaks my heart to have to install a nice tile job over a plastic tub. You will have a job where the tub will last for 10 years while the tile next to it lasts for 25. Just about all I do for a living is remodel bathrooms.
