I have ran this combo tons and tons of times on my own personal stuff and tons of customer stuff. You will be fine. Its not the optimal wheel for that tire but it works fine. Also no inner tubes, no need.

ya for the 9" wide, you should get 1/4 inch ones. theyre pretty cheap from local parts stores. like $8 a pair i think.

You may need to get extended wheel studs as well

Yes. Highly recommended to use extended wheel studs when using drag wheels and spacers. Actually its track rules to use extended wheel studs when using slicks.
