Default Looking into a badass drag set up

Hey guys I'm looking to put the biggest tire I can on the back of my camaro. I started looking into the Champion Billet black speed series wheels with XV Bead locks for my 98 camaro.

Car is stock height, stock width 8.8 custom built rear. Is anyone running these wheels? Do they clear stock Fbody brakes? Should I get 15x10 or 15x12's?
Also what is the biggest rear tire I can put on those? I'm rolling the fenders and bfh the inner fender wells. I looked into the 325x50x15 et streets

Why do you need that much tire? Plenty of big power cars can throw down with a 275 radial pro.
