Default 1972 dodge demon, wheel sizing

first i wanna say hey to everyone, im new to the forum. I just inherited my grandfathers 1972 dodge demon. Im looking to upgrade from the 14" hub capped rims. I beleive its a 5x4-1/2 lug pattern. i want to put a set of weld wheels on it i was thinking like 15x8 or 15x10 in the rear and 4" in the front. i am wondering what size wheels and tires will fit without any modifications plus the proper backspacing. if anyone can help that would be awesome!

To start, unless there has been parts changed, you have a 5 on 4" pattern, not 4.5". As far as size and backspacing i can't help, I like to keep things original.

I put a set of wheels on my Demon that are Cragar S/S from Newstalgia Wheel. I think they are 15 x 8 and 15 x 10 front to back. I have to look at them to make sure as it has been a while since I put them on and they do not rub,
