Is your truck lowered my truck has 285 35 23s with 2.5 spindles with no problem but if your front is really low there may be a problem depinding on your rim

Custom front end like that be hard to say.
put them on when the truck is together and crank the wheel side to side.
Stock suspension would be yes
