Can I get schooled on 1/4 mile? Tire - Suspension Technique

[Monera3v]

I am no expert but someone is selling me 28x12.5x15 tire
I am currently lowered on ford racing K springs

If I get the correct 15x10 wheel with 7.5" spacing I don't know if they will rub.
they are MT ET bias ply *slick with 5 grooves along the surface.

Would that be too much for my car?

This is from the sller.
Very confuse what he stating... bout 12.5 but they are really 10"

" Mickey Thompson 28x12.5x15 ET Street Bias Ply. These are the same width as a true 28x10 slick. 12.5" is the section width (it's how they classify et streets).
Lots of tread life left. $260 "

28" tire is a lot of tire. You have to accelerate that mass and the height and growth will kill your effective overall gearing. I'd stay with a 26" tire, which when it grows at speed will be very close to your stock tire height and keep your rear gearing unaffected.

Too much tire is not a good thing. Dean's ET Streets are a great deal but very likely more than you need.

-Rebuild / fix the posi unit
-go with more gear
-tire advice above is rock solid

Practice / practice then practice more.
