Default will these fit?

I am about to buy a set of drag radials for my 86 gt and wanted to make sure they would fit with minor adjustments. they're BFG 295/50/15 im getting a good deal so i wouldnt mind getting spacers or something... Thanks

What wheels are you putting them on????? Sure the tire will fit but it will depend on the width of the wheel and backspacing.

i have the springs but i was only gonna put them on the front to give it an agressive stance. i figured i would have to flare out the rear fenders but if it was going to be more work than that i dont think i would do it...

275's are a tight fit with correct back spacing as it sits to make a 295 work, you will be doing some massaging
