Default Slick equivalent to 275/60/15

What is the biggest slick that is no bigger then that? 28x10.50? the 275/60/15 ET street radial BARLEY fits on the car, nothing bigger at all will fit. Mickey Thompsons website says size equivalant is 28x11.50 which i dont see how when that has a 11" tread width and the radial has a 9.2".

Thanks guys I don't wanna order the wrong one.

275-60-15 DR = 28x11.5x15 ET Street.

I don't understand how the sizings got all different, here is how it works:

28x10.5x15 slick = 10" wide
28x11.5x15 et street, 275x60x15 mt dr = 9" wide.

Call up MT if you need to.

Ideally if the MT ET DRAG Radial Barely Fits at all you're going to want a Tire that has less than 11.1" of Section Width in order to fit your car. That's going to determine if it fits your car not tread width.
