Default 28" tire on a 15x10 on a LOWERED car.....come inside

Who is running a 28x11.50 or 12.50 ET Street or ET Drag on a 15x10 on a lowered car?

Right now I am running a 325/45R17 on my 17x9.5 Fikse's and a 28x11.50R15 on my 15x10 Stars. But, I may be selling this entire setup and getting 17x7, 17x11, and 15x10 Billet Specialties for the car.

If I do this I want to lower the *** end a bit so it looks good with the 315/35R17 Mickey's but will still handle the 28x11.50R15's on the 15x10's.

So who is doing this, do you have any pics, and did it rub anywhere. Thanks!

EDIT: I'll probably only lower the rear an inch or so, but right now those 28's fill up the well pretty good with stock springs.

I'm running 275/60/15's on 15x10 Prostars. The car looked way to raked to me so I removed the rear spring isolators and it looks a lot better now. I would give that a try before buying a lowering kit. Sorry I don't have any pic's and the car is up on jackstands now.

See that is what I was going to do. It still has the stock isolators in there and I still have a piece of hose laying around from when I planned on doing the Heater Hose mod last year.

That may be added to my list of things this weekend.
