I'm planning out my drag racing wheel/tire setup. I really like the look and price of the American Racing AR767 15x10 wheels. My only concern is, will they fit? I have a Fab 9 rear with stock width being made now.

Here are the wheel specs:

15x10 Wheel Size
5x4.75 Bolt Pattern
4.04in Backspace
1400lbs Max Load
Not Hubcentric
-37 Offset

Also, if these fit, should i use 325/50/15 radials or 315/60/15 radials? Why?

My car is black with red outline. These wheels match PERFECT haha. However, i have no idea what are cheap or quality concerning drag rims. I always thought american racing made quality products

Several reasons. A few being that aside from a very few select wheels (Weld Racing RTS series, Bogart LS1 specific drag wheels, and Billet Specialties F-Body Specifics) no 15" diameter wheel will clear the factor LS1 braking system. Another is that the backspace on the listed wheel is no where even close to the neighborhood that would be needed to fit under a stock length rear axle. For a stock length rear axle in a 15x10 wheel you need a wheel with no less than 7.5 backspace, not the 4.04 backspace that your selected wheel has.

Ah, now that makes sense! So if i was to look outside of those few brands, and go with a 16x10 with a 7.5" backspace would that work? Also, if i call the place building my rear, how much more backspace leeway will i have per "x" amount of shortening the rear?
