No 15" rear wheel will fit with the IRS. You can make it work with a lot of grinding but most people won't do it.

Let me know how you like the Hoosiers. I won't be ordering a new set until I get the car out in the spring, so I have some time to pick out new tires lol.

The tire will fit, and the rim will fit over the brakes, but you will still have to grind the tie rod and knuckle to fit the 15" wheel. I'd use a 15x8.250 with 5.5" backspace. How much power do you make? You shouldn't need beadlocks unless you're in the 1,000hp range, which I doubt if you're still using the IRS lol.
