Default Backspacing Question

The lift kit I'm getting recommends a 4-1/2" backspacing on rims. The rims I've been looking at (Cragar Soft 8's in a 15x8 size) have a backspacing of 4". Will running these rims with this suspension lift cause me issues at all? I don't plan on doing extreme offroading with it at all.

the wheels youre looking at will stick out of the wells 1/2" more than the lift kit reccommends, so if anything its better than required
