They should fit fine with the exception of some minor trimming to the front valance. This combo will stick out about 1.5" past where the factory rims and tires did. I have 295/60r20 trail graps on 20x9 rims with +1 offset and a 2" level and had to do some minor trimming to the rear of the flare as well.

The 315/60 is almost a 13" wide tire, and you may be trimming into fenders to get them to clear. I think you'll be happy with the 295/60.

the first set up you mentioned will fit easily, the second set up with the toyos will be a bit more difficult. Either way its not outrageous.

Have you seen pics of your body style on a 2.5 inch level? Most guys find it actually puts them about 0.5 inches nose high. Just in case you weren't aware..
