wheels finding backspace
This is also likely to cause you some scrubbing issues because they will also be sticking in further too, hence the reason you have to use spacers with factory wheels. Factory wheels have 6.25" B.S.

well yeah if its the factory backspacing and you go with a bigger tire, but if the backspacing is say 4.5 on a 8" wide rim and the same 4.5" backspacing is on a 10" wide rim the rim will stick out 2" further and the actaul tire will stick out but less than the 2" due to less curve in the sidewall of the tire. It will also poke in less even tho the backspacing is the same. The tire will center itself on the wider rim.

BLKRUBI if you don't mind what rims do you have that are 5.25" back spacing. I'm trying to find and 8" rim with 5.25 - 5.5" of back spacing but have not found anything yet except american racing fuel 8's.
I have those same wheels and tire size. You will not be disapointed. I would snap you picture, but I have a hole in my sidewall and the tire is very flat. LOL.
