From what I've seen around here you have to "clearance" the front of the wheel well with a BFH (hammer) and some have to remove the bump stops...There's a local shop here that does a "mini-mini tub" that looks way better than the hammer method...and an adjustable PHB helps, too...

M/T shows that as a 28.0" tire. Its a close call. With 28.0" QTP's I had to move the rear axle assembly back about 1/4" because the tire tread would rub on the front edge of the wheel opening, when they grew at the top end. A radial tire should not grow that much. With 28.1" ET Drags, I had to cut about 1" off the leading edge of the rear bumper cover.

I ran mine without adjustable lca's or panhard rod, even removed the isolator so it was slightly lower. I had to remove the bump stop, cut the outer fender lip, and beat in the inner fender. They fit perfect after that though.
