Yeah they fit. I was running them on my 92 GT. I had to roll the fender and trim the interior part of the rear quarterpanel, right next to the wheel. They hook big time too. I had to take them off because they were too fragile on the street. I got several flats over the months. They were fun while they lasted though. I could eat anybody from stoplight to stoplight, easily.

They will kill your rpm, you don't have enough gear or power to run those tires yet, the 26" x 10.5" would be best. The 28" tires will fit if you trim the wheel opening and bang the inner fender in, you may also need to trim the rear ground effect so that when the tires grow they do not rub.
