MT E/T 26 x 10.5-15 or 28 x 11.5-15.

Would the 28 give me more traction, being a taller tire? Width is only .3 wider according to the Summit Catalog. 1.5 taller....... Would I hit with a taller tire ? My current tire is about the same height as the 26.

In some cases you can slow with a taller tire, but you will get better traction, i know these 26x10.5's are not as sticky as i thought, but good when you leave like 8 psi in them @#%snap goes the axles j/k
