Are you sure your QTP's are 28"? I have the 27" on right now and was not sure if they actually make a 28". The 27" fit great but I need a taller tire and am not sure if a 28" will fit without rolling the fenders.

well they looked great until i made a run and found out that they are rubbing the back of the bumper cover. i like the look of the 28's but i think it's too much tire for my setup(lost 3mph and doesn't seem to pull as hard)i'm gonna go back to a 26' mickey dr. if your looking for a set these have alot of life left

Oh man, I just ordered some 28" QTP's. I wish I read this first. I would have taken them off your hands.
