which MT 28x11.5? Which 28x11.5 tire on 15x8 wheels do most people run?

R Bias ply or SS radial? I heard both of these fit with no rolling, pounding or cutting. 28x11.5 ET Drags are a different story.
Can NOT take an exit ramp at 60 on the R bias play though. Bout to say the hell with it and just buy a 2nd set of 15x10 and put 28x11.5 ET drags and keep my 275/50/15 ET streets on 15x8 that i currently have for street use. I'd like to avoid rolling fenders and pounding but oh well.
Looks like MT lists a 275/60 as an 28x11.5 when it's really a 28x10.8 (28x11)

After thinking about this more, I'm going with 28x10.5 pro bracket radial MTT-3355R on a separate set of 15x10 wheels.
Now raises the question of what should the backspace be? The 15x10 race star 92 series is only offered in 7.25 and 5.5 offset and I need race star 92 series to match my fronts. Obviously the 5.5 offset on a 15x10 wheel would be a joke, but how will the 7.25 offset look on my S60 that is shortened 0.75" on each side?
We know that:
15x8 with 6.5 BS would be perfect with rear end stock length
My car currently has 15x8 with 5.25 BS on a rear end with 0.75" cut on each side and this makes my current setup extend an extra 13mm past what most consider perfect.
Therefore 15x10 with 7.25 BS would also stick out 13mm more with the rear end narrowed 0.75 inched off each side. But note that inner clearance is 50mm LESS compared to the 15x8 with 5.25 BS that I have now. Hopefully this won't present any issues.
For reference:
15x10 with 5.5 BS would be perfect with rear end narrowed 3 inches off each side
15x10 with 7.75 BS would be perfect with rear end narrowed 0.75 inches off each side
15x8 with 5.75 BS would be perfect with rear end narrowed 0.75 inches off each side
