Not sure if this tire/wheel combo will work??

I know, another will this wheel fit question. Sorry, but I've done all the searches and I think they will probably squeeze by without rubbing, but I'm not real sure.
They are Raceline wheels chrome Predator 8
20 x 8.5
5.25 backspacing
+12 offset
3500 load rating

Wrap them with 35 x 12.5 Toyo MTs
The truck will only have a 2" leveling kit.
Tell me what you think.
Thanks, Bruce

How much are these going to stick out of the fenders? I'm thinking 1"- 1.5" or so.

You WILL have to trim the back of the front fender, trust me. I have a little over 5.5" BS and mine rubbed (35/12.50/20s Toyo MTs)

i think you would be good too, i just had my new vortrac 35" tires installed on my rims, eagles, 17"x9", and i think they are 4" back spacing, i have the 2" spacers up front, and the tire on the drivers side rubs the inside fender slightly about mid turn. depends on how i load the front end. if i turn slow, its good, if i turn faster throwing thw weight to the passenger side, it rubs.
if i had slightly longer control arms, and either an adjustable track bar, or a drop bracket, i think it would be fine.your rims shouldn't be much different from mine in the back spacing you have.
