Default 28x12.5 15 et streets growth.

i was wondering if anyone knows how much a et street 28x12.5r15 on a 8 inch wide rim will grow around 130mph? i have about .5" between the tire and the fender part of the wheel well. (not a f body) and am not sure if the tire will hit once its up to speed.

I run that same tire on a 10" rim, and at 135mph I get no rub with 1/2" clearance......but on an 8" rim I would think it might grow a little more.
