What's the highest backspacing you can run on teh rears?

Hey guys... Question for anyone out there running racing wheels.

I run 13x8 w/ 4" backspacing all around at the autoX, but I'm looking at getting some nice wide 15's for the strip, and trying to figure out what teh highest backspacing you can run is.

Anyone out there run anything higher than 4"? I know I could just measure clearance and will when I am at home, just trying to see what others are running.

(GLS-SE BTW)

Use your diamonds as a starting point and just measure it out.
