Will these wheels work for drag racing?

I was looking for some extremely cheap drag wheels. I sell these where I work, so obviously I can get an awesome deal on them. They are intended for circle track racing. My question is: Will these work on my FWD for drag application??

I want a 15x8 and 5x4.5 lug pattern and these are that. I really doont see why they wouldnt work, I just wanted to make sure.

Also, what backspacing should I get 1", 2", 3" or 4"???

Thanks in advance.

Your best bet would be to find out what backspacing some people are using on their cars that are running either slicks or 235 or greater and just convert mm to in. I'd love to give you an answer, but in this case i just don't know.
