Hey I'm looking at buying a set of 15x8 Draglites for the back. But I have a couple of quetions though. What size should the back spacingbe? Do I need to run a spacer? What size is the bolt circle?, Am I going to need longer studs? Should I be able to use the 90 Series wheel or do I need XP forged 191 series? I know it's a lot of questions but I dont' want to order anything wrong or order more than once. Thanks.

You can run the regular Draglites but you will have to grind and use a spacer. You will want the 5.5" backspace for the 15X8 rim. I don't remember for the bolt circle. If you don't want to grind and use a spacer get the Draglite XP's.
Just a suggeston if you are not dead-set on Draglites:
Check out Bogart wheels, talk to Steve at SJM Manufacturing. I got 15x10's (with a 15x11.5x25 ET Streets) on the back of my car with no spacers, grinding, or tire clearance problems.
Bogarts are custom-made for F-Bods and have the right amount of backspacing that you won't get with off-the-shelf Weld or Centerline wheels.
