16s are the worst possible size you can go with if you want wider tires. Either grind the calipers and install some 15x10 Draglites, or go with some 17" wheels. Both the 15s and 17s have 275 wide Nittos available, 315 wide if you go with a 17x11 wheel.

By the way, XP Draglites are heavier than stock 16x8 wheels, so they aren't that good for anything but appearance.

I think Centerline Convo Pros are supposed to be a bolt on wheel. I think 15x8.5 with a 4 inch backspacing is what is supposed to fit. I'm not sure what backspacing a 15x10 would need...... I'm not sure if they will bolt on though.
