Default Will 26x11.50x 15 fit on 8 inch wheel and not rub?

Thinking about ordering a set of mt et street drags for the car. Need to know if 26x 11.50x 15 will fit ok on a set of 15x8 draglites and if so will there be any rubbing issues once they are on the car.

I used 26x11.5-16 on a 16x8 numerous times. Never has running problems either. But that all depends on the back spacing

It is a 15x8 inch draglite with 5.5 inch backspacing. I didn't figure I would have any issued I just know that they recommend a 10 inch wheel for the 11.5 tire. Didn't know if it would be an issue to use it on an 8 inch wheel.

You may get some wash running an 11.5" tire on an 8" wide rim.
Probably not anything major but you should expect some sway if your running lower pressure's.
