your wheel might hit the spindle...

use a tape measure.

5" backspacing will work perfectly! That is what I ran on my 13x8 Bogarts

from experience with 13" drag wheels...

4" will ONLY clear stock civic brakes (NOT SI or GSR or LS brakes)
5" will clear all OEM Honda/Acura 4lug and 5lug brakes (will not clear big brakes)

I also run a set of Bogarts. The GSR front brakes just clear. Mounted and examined. Only thing is that when I have it balanced, I have them use the thin stick on weights and not the large weights. I believe spacing is 5" too.
