I've got 275 60 x 15's with about an 8-inch drop but have 12.875-inches (327mm) between the inside of the fender and the inside of the box. My 275's are 283mm (11.125-inch) wide so you will have to measure each tire and watch your backspacing and track bar to get the maximum tire tucked into that fender. My 275's are supposed to be 10.83-inches at the widest section through the tire. They are on 8.5 inch rims. Good luck.

BTW...Welcome to the board from Kent, WA! We are doing a front end spring swap tomorrow morning in Bothell if you are out and about.
