picking wheels+offset=mindblown

I am looking at purchasing some Torq thrust ii wheels for my 82 c10 which is lowered 3/5. I have a few options 8" in the front and 9.5" in the rear or 9.5" all the way around. Does anyone have this setup or can point me in the right direction?

American racing offers 4" and 5" offset for the 8" wheel 9.5" wheel only offers 5.5"

#1 problem w/off the shelf wheels is back spacing that 'can' work but is a compromise. For a squarebody w/the sizes listed, I would want 4.5"bs on the front & rear.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
