Default Wheel experts, need some help with fitament

Looking for a lightweight drag wheel for the Monte Carlo and my Hoosier QTP 26 x 9.5 x 16 drag tires. Hoosier recommends a 6" to 8" wheel.

I found the following Moda M10 wheel which is in our bolt pattern and a few pounds lighter than most wheels. Anyone see any fitament issues on the car with the Hoosiers and the wheel below? I have 16x8 mustang rims on it now with same Hoosier tires.

MODA MD10
Offset: 42mm
Backspacing: 5.94"
Bolt Pattern: 5-115
Rec. Tire Size:225/60-16
Weight: 17.3lbs.

What's the width on that wheel? Should be 8" with that offset.

They will stick out 15mm further than stock and give you 3mm more clearance on the inside

Thanks! Is there a website I can plug the wheel info into and get the info that you provided for some other wheel options I'm looking at?
