Will these tires look goofey with my 2.5/4" drop?

Hey guys I have a 2.5/4" drop and I have been searching for big meaty tires to put in the back. However all the tires I have found seem too short with a lot of sectional width.

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/KUM-2102173/

Brand Kumho Tires
Manufacturer's Part Number 2102173
Tire Size 32 x 11.50-15
Wheel Diameter 15 in.
Tire Diameter 31.40 in.
Section Width 11.40 in.
Tread Width 11.50 in.
Minimum Recommended Wheel Width 8.00 in.
Maximum Recommended Wheel Width 10.00 in.
Speed Rating S Load Range
Traction Rating A

These tires have less sectional width plus they are:

.4 inches narrower tread width than the 315/60-15 mickey Thompson drag radial.

.6 inches wider tread width than the 295/60-15 mickey thompson

I have 10" wide rallies for the rear. These tires have comparable tread width, less sectional width, more tread, and are taller.

Well what do you guys think?
