Default Need help on Tire size for 15x3.5" prostars.

I'm currently running a 165R 15 Tire on my 15x3.5" prostar rims. The problem is ground clearance issues with one of my STS turbo pipes. The tire is 24 1/4" tall. I'm looking for a taller tire basically 26-27" would be great. Do they make a tire in that size/height for those size rims??

Unless you go with a bias ply drag tire in the front, you are limited to the 155/80 and 165/80 radials............... but Hoosier and M/T have new radial street rod type tires out in taller sizes, but it would be pushing it on a 3.5" rim........
