rear wheel spacing?


as you can see i have weld draglites on my car. I dont know the back spacing on the rims but what i do know is that everytime i get on it the tires squat down and my tires get cut by the quarter panel...should i ask someone for the right spacing? should i roll the 1/4 panel? if i get new rims, what spacing shoud i use?
