Default Drag Radial with stock trailing arms?????

I have 255-60-15 TA's at this point the parking brake cable almost hits the tire. I'm looking for some proven drag radial tire sizes that are the stock 26 inch tire hieght. Does any one have any idea if a 275-50-15 micky will fit with minor parking brake mods?

For what it is worth, I am running BF Goodrich P245X60X15 Radial T/A's and they barely clear the e-brake cable on my '72. When dragracing, on the rear I am running the BF Goodrich P235X60X15 Drag Radials on stock Vette alum wheels. They hook plenty good, ocassionally too good. :jester Chas
