Default do they make a 29x10x15 slick or DOT tire?

Id love to run a taller narrower tire. My 294/45/17 (28x11.5x17 says MT) rub just a touch so id like to go a bit taller (for RPM reasons with the 4.56s and a little narrower so i dont have to worry about rubbing.

pics?

i just cleanrance what you have to to make the 28s work. Think a 29 you would have more issues with bumper cover and front wheel well.

the only time my 28s rub is because they are 11.5 wide, if they were an inch in farther they would be perfect! I dont mind cutting up the bumper cover are clearancing the front. If it cant be done it cant be done, it was just a thought tho

Is the fender lip rolled? I have the hoosier qtp which are 28x11.5x15. My rear is narrowed 2.5 inchs each side with a 5.5 BS wheel so pulles the wheels in about a half a inch which helps with the lip. once got the lca adjusted and hammering this hell out of the front of the inner wheel well. The tire is still very close to the bumper cover and front part of the body. I think it would be difficult to fit a 29" tall tire.

my fenders are rolled, but my car is SLAMMED with my drag setup. The highest part of my rear fenders are 27 3/4" the very very top of my MTs tuck it isnt till the suspension articulates that they actually rub just every so slightly. Im tubbing the car currently, and am going to cut the **** out of the fender wells to clearence eveything, i just thought it would be nice to get a little extra rpm out of the 4.56 with a taller tire

I doubt it that tire will grow an inch or better!
