Will this wheel size fit?

I've got a friend that has some draglites that are this size..
15 x 10" wheel
5 x 4.75" bolt holes
but.....they are 3.5 to 4 inches backspacing....I know most people run 7" of backspacing...

Can I make these work????

or better yet...is anyone else running this size?

I'm getting a killer deal so hopefully they will!


Thanks

Cody

Sure..... you can bolt them on, after to grind the fins off the brake calipers. And the 3"-4" of tire that sticks outside the fender will make a convenient place to sit and drink some soda between passes.

This is a 15x10 Weld with a 7.5" BS. The 3.5" BS would stick out 4" beyond these. There is no way to "make them work" if the backspace is too small.
