which draglites to get?

[gxnos]

I want to get a set of draglites for my '86 GT daily driver.

The whole sizing / backspacing numbers always confuse me so i'll just ask.

I have the stock quadshocks in the back, should i still go with the 15x8 in the back? Also, what backspacing? I'm going to run a smaller street tire like a 245.

The big problem is the front. I do not want the 3.5" up front. What are the other options? 4.5" or 5"?

Somebody just tell me what I need! haha

TIA

I run the rodlites with a 15X8 rear w/5.5bs and a 15X6 up front with a 3.5bs, and it works good, I'm runnung a 235-60 out back and a 195-65 up front. Do you want the rears tucked like stock or do you like the flush with the fender look, if you want them flush with the fender get a 15X8 w/4.5bs but you may have to roll your fender lips. Lowered or stock height?

the car is completely bone stock... so i think im better off with the 15x8 rear with 5.5BS.

Thanks for the info on the 15x6 3.5BS on the front with the 195 65 15...

do you have any pics? id like to see what it looks like.
