Talking Will 26x11.5x16 work

I have and fd and was wondering if a set of 26x11.5x16 mounted on factor wheel will fit in the back. I hope they will work b/c I just happen to have a set laying around the shop. Save me a little money
Thanks
Chase

Are these slicks or ET streets?

26x10.5" slicks fit. ET Streets in 11.5" size are the same size.

Check out the specs on the ET streets. 12" wide tires are typically only 10" wide and they are not as tall as advertised.

The ET street Drag Radial is the new top dog and a true radial. The above tire is bias ply and can't be mixed with radial tires up front or your car will drive all over the place (dangerous).
