Default MT Drag Radial Question

I have a 20x 9.5" rim and i want to run a set of Mickey Thompson ET drag radials.

However the closest thing i can find that "might fit" is:

3727R P305/35R20

The Approved Rims range from 10.0-12.0
see more detail here: http://www.mickeythompsontires.com/s...StreetRadialII

So can this be done being only 0.5" (12.7mm) smaller than recommended and if it does fit what are the consequences.....i mean really 0.5" isn't a lot

305 is too big for a 9.5" rim IMO, and MTs run a little wide I think.

I wouldn't put it on any less than a 10" personally...0.5" doesn't sound like a lot on paper but it is more than you would think IMO.
