275/60/15 drag radials

i have the mt et street radial under my car. ive researched these tires on foxes and 90% of the people say you can fit under the factory wheel well, some even say you can fit them with the quad shock still in place. well i have megabite jr lowers and factory uppers and springs on a greg weld 15/9 wheel and mine rubbed so bad i couldnt drive it, ive finally got most of it out, it still rubbs backing up very slightly, and when i hit bumps evenly like a dip across the road. doesnt scrub if i hit it on just one side. any ideas? ive beat the innner well and rolled the outer lip

255/60-15 is a good alternative. Still a pretty big tire and MT makes it.

lol everywhere it can, i had to beat both inner fenders with a huuugge sledge for about an hour a peice with a 315 lbs duye slingin the hammer, then i hit a small bump and the outside lip sliced the tire pretty good and had to roll the shit out of the lips lol they are under there now, and barely scrubbing when i hit certain things. but damn lol everything i read on the internet about this stuff said they would go on fine lol
