Default Quick wheel fitment question

Ive done tons of searching and reading and i know ideal wheel size in fifteen inch would be 15x8 with 5.5 backspacing. My question is, if i plan on keeping stock ride height, can i run 15x8 with 4.5 backspacing? Even though it will stick out some? Love the look but will it hit? Please help!

275 50 15 drag radials

Yes with stock ride height you would be fine. How are you going to just give an hour and then say you don't get any help? People do have lives.

you need to chill about the response time! People leave work around the time you posted and for some were probably still stuck in traffic when you made your second post, the only difference is the will stick out a little if your current tires hit now then the ones that stick out a little more, will still hit! Sorry we all weren't here at the same moment you needed us to answer your stupid a## question

99% of those 30 probably don't know what they are talking about anyway lol

Here is your answer. I saved this a couple years ago from another website.
