Will 26" ET Streets fit? Lowered

My car is lowered with MAC progressive-rate springs. Stock shocks. I'm gonna have salad shooters with 26x10.5x16 M/T ET Streets.

Here's what I'm working with -

I'd like to know if I'm gonna have any problems here (rubbing, popping tires trying to launch, you know). Thanks in advance!

I have the pro-kit and take-off shocks and have no problem with 26x11.5x15's fitting or rubbing at the track.

Are you running a stock rear end? If so, you may not be for long! Anway, they should fit fine.

Yep, stock rear. It will probably break. Oh well. General rule, if it breaks, then it needed to be upgraded anyway.

As always, thanks for your help guys,
