tire size too big?

hey guys i just got a good chance to pickup some 20" xd hoss wheels and tires. The tires are 305/50/20 which is about 32x12. I have 2wd, so with an AS would i be ok or am i going to run into trouble with a tire that wide? I am not positive on the BS of the rim and i do know that does make a big difference....

You might have to do a lil trimming up front but I think they would fit with a 2.5" spacer.

yes if i do this i will be putting in a spacer, im still just worried of going through all that trouble and then having alot of rubbing.... and just to update just got off the phone with the guy who is selling them and he said he wasnt sure of the BS of the rim, but said that they stuck out about 1.5-2 inches, which makes me think its 4.5ish BS..... do you guys think that would look kinda funny since i dont have a lifted truck(and not even 4wd) with that much sticking out?

the 2.5" kit recomends 33 by 12.50, it should work but i dont know about the backspacing btw it will look horrible so you can give the wheels and tires to me.

I can't tell for sure with a 4x2, you might have to trim a little. I know with a 4x4 you can fit 305/70R17s (34x12.2) on aftermarket wheels, or 35x12.50 on stock. Chances are if you are running stock rims on that 4x2, that 32x12.2 tire should be no problem...
