Default m/t's?

I'm looking into some drag radials for my 2002 camaro, i don't have the money for new rims so i want to put the radials on my stock z28 rims. the rims are 9.5" wide right? can i put some radials like this on it?
P295/50R16 28 X 11.50R16 rim size:8.0-10.0"
will these tires fit under my z with no modifications? i've read 255/50/16's and 315/35/17 but i've never heard of anyone going between and running a 295/50/16.

well if you have stock z28 rims, that means they are only 8 inches wide. so you might want to try a tire thats a little smaller. a 255/50 would be good
