Prob has the more narrow rear housing in it.

Fronts would be fine. 255/40/20

The back would look a bit narrow unless you ran spacers. Most run a 20x10 with 5in backspacing on the early housing. Being 6.5" in the back you could get by with. 5" more backspacing but IMO the 8.5" wheel would kinda get swallowed up under the fleet bed. 'Tucked under too far'

Ok so the front back spacing would be just fine? Do you think if I put spacers in the rear it would look odd?
