with the right off set rims and if you trim the inside lip of yor fender well off (that lil L shaped peice of metal) if fits snug but well
best of luck!

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.

You should get 26x11.50. I'm running them now, They hook awesome and look bad a$$ too.

Hey spike, will the 11.5's fit on the 15X8 draglite rim? Thanks
