Default BFG Drag radials-how big can I go?

I'll be running Convo Pro wheels-15x8. Are the the 325/50r15 too big? If they are will the275/50r15 ok? And will they handle ok on the street with skinnies in front? Thanks

325-50-15's would fit on a 15x10. Also are tall.

I wouldn't put a 325/50 on an 8" wheel. Like PSJ said, they need a 10" wheel. The 325/50/15 is also 28" tall. It would hurt more than it would help if you aren't geared for a tire like that...
