They'll fit fine (though I would be putting 245 width on that rim). Your biggest issue will be the 40% height, you're gonna be a full inch in diameter larger than stock.

But to answer you're question, yes they'll fit.

They'll be a little bit wide, but not balloony.

If you're lowered you're gonna have to take that increase in diameter into account. If not, you'll be okay. You may need to remember that your speedo is gonna be off of your actual speed a bit too...

GL and pics when you're done.

I don't think it is going to work even at stock height. Good luck with that.
