will 325/60/20 tires fit stock 20" rims w/2.5 AS?

Hey guys, I am buying new BFG All Terrain TA KO's for my truck and cant decide between 285/65/20's, which i know will fit with my yet to be installed AS 2.5 and 1.5 rear lift kits, and the 325/60/20's. I know the 325 will look cooler, but will they fit without rubbing, on stock 20" rims? Both work out to be close to the same height, but its the width im worried about.

285/65/20 = 34.7 x 11.5

325/60/20 = 35.5 x 13


Thanks for yr help,

kokanee,

Thanks for the complements!! I have slight rubbing at full lock on the upper A arm. I had to trim the front valance slightly. I think the look is worth the slight rubbing. Let me know if I can answer anymore questions.

Thanks for the reply Nebraska,

have you noticed any difference in performance and gas mileage? I would guess the 5.4 has enough ***** to turn the big meats without feeling sluggish and gas mileage wont be as good as stock, but im curious by how much.

With my mods in my sig I get around 15-16 mpg (hand calculated). The best I have gotten was driving all interstate and I get 17.6 mpg (hand calculated). It has lost power, but the exhaust has helped. I am hoping to get a tuner soon to get more!!!!
