I disagree I had 285s no cranking and I even had a front bumper that weighed down the front. The deciding factor would be the rims. I think it would fit with a little trimming.

Ya but that's my point. Even with the so called smaller wheel wells of the NBS trucks I think it would fit because I fit them with no crank and my front end sagging. Plus it was 285/75r16 which IIRC is taller than the rim and tire combo he's lookin at.

My factory 265/70R17's rubbed when I hit a small bump. The NBS trucks don't have the clearance the OBS trucks did.
