ive been looking at some drag wheels, and i found some Drag lites for a dirt cheap price for 15x10s. The bolt patern is a 5x4.5/4.75 and the back spacing is 5.5" will these be ok in the back other than some grinding of the banjo bolt? or will i be better letting them pass and getting a different backspacing?

I believe this is not enough back space- they will stick outside your fenders! Ideally, you need 6.5" backspace w/ 10" wheels. You may be able to get away with 6" depending on tires and ride height. Good luck,

Matt
