You basically have two options:
1. bust out the disk grinder and grind the outer corners of your rear calipers off to clear Weld Pro-Stars or Draglites (15x10 with 7.5" backspace)
2. buy some Bogart 15x9.75 wheels that are specially made for our cars and do not require grinding. Steve10 can help you with that.
28x10.0 slicks will barely fit without cutting any wheel openings for clearance
26x10.5 slicks will fit just like a factory tire will
28x10.5 slicks will rub slightly on the lower parts of the wheel opening, probably have to cut those areas slightly to fit them.

i have weld 15x10" w/7.5" backspace,
and i had to use two spacers on each side.
but they cleared the rotors no problem.
read nine ***** post again
and add also,
you could buy aftermarket drag-purpose brakes that will fit 15x10.
but i'd grind or get bogarts.
