Anyone running a hoosier qtpdot 28x11.5 16 on a stock wheel on an early 4th gen? I need to know if they will fit.

I ran the QTP 28x11.5-15's. I had to move the rear axle back about 1/4" to keep the tread from hitting the sheetmetal at the front of the fender opening, when trap speeds went over 125MPH. Compare the dimensions for the two tires on the Hoosier website.

You can see how tight the fit is:

Aftermarket 15" rims are the standard for most drag tires on stock body vehicles (both slicks and front-runners).
