Bringing this back from the dead, don't give a shit!

Ok so i'm having a little problems trying to get my drag wheel setup ideal. I ended up ordering Weld draglites with some troubling specs on them, I don't know much about wheels offsets and crap like that so that said my wheels are 15x8 4x4.25" and 4x4.5" back space.

Now i was told 4x4.5" is wider then a 5x5.5 back which didn't make sense to me the higher the number the wider the backspace is? Anyways i ended up getting some M/T ET drag radials 255/60/15 for the welds all though i originally wanted the 235/60/15 but oh well.

Few questions, i ended getting the summit racing lug nuts posted above in this thread originally and was wondering did anyone use Extended studs or are the lug nuts literally long enough to fit with the stock studs on the car through the rim???

Now for my problem the damn offset if really off on my car when i test fitted them i was hoping and thinking originally the wheels were going to sit flush inside the rear but guess not....




Friends were telling me to roll and pull the fenders, not my kinda thing so i'm thinking about adjusting and raising up the coilovers on the rear high any opinions?
