slicks
Im running a 28x10.5x15 on 15x10 wheels. The work but it took some grinding, massaging and cussin to get them to clear. I also had adjustable LCAs and panhard bar to square it up.

What gears do you have and auto or manual? Auto with 4.10s I would do 28"tall. 6-speed with 4.10s i'd do 26". 28" it would be a good idea to get your fenders rolled so you don't cut into the tire.
What's your combo? A 27x10.5" Hoosier QTP on a 15" wheel can yield excellent 60' times and stability. No fender rolling or BFH needed. With the amazing times coming out of bias ply tires these days it would almost seem slicks would be obsolete, IMO.

315/60/15 or 30x13.5x15 here, 15x10+7.5"BS with no spacers Just had to Cut the Bump stops off, some Bumper, roll the fender lips, get some Adjustable LCA's and adjust the axle back 1", Shave the Brake Calipers and Hammer the inner tub until the wheel and tire fit in there without rubbing on anything, MT Drag Radials, a difference in tire size on front and back will cause about 3 ABS lights to pop on the dash, BRAKE, ABS INOP, LOW TRAC, but I just did the ABS delete kit with a LINE LOCK on the front brakes for really good burnouts, took the bulbs out that were on all the time. Drag tires ride great !

I like the MT ET Street...

I used to run MT ET street bias ply 26/10.5 on salad shooters and loved them. I dont think MT makes 26/10.50s anymore on a 16 inch rim, but that is the stock size tire and fits great on salad shooters or another cheap stock wheel. I went to a 27/10.50 and those still fit easy on stock wheels no grinding or massaging.
