Default tire widths-hoosier vs. M/T

I have been running a 26x11.50x15 M/T et street for years on my 8" wide prostars. Id like to try out the Hoosier QTP's this season. I have heard the tire width is actaully wider even tho they both are 11.50's. anyone know if i will have a problem mounting the QTP's in a 26x11.50 on my 8" wide prostars?
