I had some of those on the front of my old truck... I highly doubt they would work with tires that big. I had 245/60's on the front and they were close to rubbing. The backspacing was way wrong for wide tires.

If you go with smaller rubber, you can run them, but you may have to grind on the center hole a tad to get them over the hub.
