Default Will big Mickeys fit?

I am looking at purchasing the 325 x 50 x 15 Mickey Thompson Drag Radials. Will they fit under my 2001 Z-28's fenderwells and would I need a 15" x 10"?
Looking to buy soon. Thanks in advance for the responses.

Yea, but you'll probably have to do a little clearancing of the wheel well and fender lip to clear them.
