Technically too wide.
But, they are run that way by quite a few trucks.

Wider aftermarket wheels will pull them away from the radius arms as well.

Get some wider rims with the correct offest and backspace and you will be happy. Match the lift with rims always.

They would fit, but they would look really wierd. Plus you would have ballancing issues. I suggest you get wider rims or find a set of tires more narrow.

wider rims needed! if you get a great deal on the tires, you might as well pick them up and save up for some wheels.
