Default Backspacing Requirements for 275 tire

I've got a 650+ hp Integra I drive back and forth from the track. I've currently got some 15x8 Konig Dial-Ins with +25 offset. I've currently got Toyo RA1 on it, and I have some serious traction issues right now. Looking to change this.

Car: 1997 Integra, GSR Engine/Trans
Suspension: Koni Yellows w/ Ground Control coilovers

Looking to go with the MT ET Street R Bias-Ply, which the smallest they have is 26x10.5x15 which is recommended for a 7-9" wheel, so the 15x8 will work for them.

While I'm not really worried about height of the car (I'll raise it if necessary) nor worried about going lock-to-lock (I rarely park where it's needed, I don't exactly go to Meijer's with this car), will these tires work with this backspacing? The 225 tires I have no have zero issues other than traction, so I definitely need a new street tire.

You'll definitely need to raise it, if you're not going to run flares. But, you should be able to get them on with enough clearance internally.
