Default MT ET Street 28X13.50 Fit?

I have a 2000 TransAm and 15x10 Bogarts on back for the track. Will the MT ET Street 28x13.5 fit or will 12.5 only fit? I realize I will have to probably roll my fenders and use a big hammer on the inside and maybe modify the bumpstop area.
The ET streets very comparable to the ET Drag Stiff sidewall as far as compound and traction?

Thanks!

I also wondered the same thing, from what I hear you CAN fit 28x13.5s but it is a pain in the dick and they rub on turns, and the 28x12.5s fit easier, so thats the route I'll be going when I need tires next, since I cant find 325/50/15 DR's anymore.

315s will not fit without some serious work, they are a 30" tire.

I had 28x13.5's and they fit with alot of cutting, hammering, flaring fenderwells out and it still rubbed going around corners. The only way I kept it from rubbing when driving down a rough road was to stiffen up the shocks. I wouldnt waste my time with them. I switched to 325/45/17 M&H radials and they hook harder than the 13.50's did + they are alot more narrow on a stock 17x9 wheel...some people havent even noticed the m&h's on my car
