If you have the clearance, keep the 10" wheels and run those "12.5" ET Streets. I can tell some here don't realize that the designated "sizes" on ET Streets are not traditional drag tire sizes. ie. the 12.5" ET Street tread width is only about 10".
Slicks numbers generally mean tread width.
ET Street numbers correspond to section width.
My 10" Hoosier slicks are wider than these "12.5" tires you're talking about.

So what I need to know is keep them or exchange them?
The ET Drags 28x10.5x15 I would exchange them for has a 10" tread with a 11.6" section width. The ones I currently have are 10" tread with a 12.5" section. So its only .9" wider.

Stops are gone but the mounts are still there. I would recommend cutting those off though. Its a really tight fit with them there
No fender rolling, but will need it if I go any lower back there
BFH? Yea a hell of a lot of it. Also needed to slightly trim the back bumper cover to fit the 28in slicks. If you have adj lca's you won't have to cut as much

The reasons why I got 12.5" is because the 11.5" is not recommended for a 10" inch rim?

These are them.

Here is the 11.5"
Starting to wondering if I should exchange the 12.5s.
I have no rear end in my car right now, still have till next week before it ships, so I can't test fit them.

They don't make a 28x10.5x15 ET Streets, only ET Drags.
These are the next step in ET Streets. 11.1" section, 8.60" tread.
