They would be tucked in a LOT and you would have issues with rubbing the suspension and frame. Go with something like 3.75 or 4. Also, the glass fenders only give you extra clearance on compression, not in the pinch weld area where you will most likely be rubbing.

90% sure it WON'T work. My old 32/11.5-15s on stock rims just barely cleared the stock upper a-arms. You tuck the wheels in closer with 5" BS and they are going to rub for sure - and it would be a constant rubbing, not just at turn or flex.

Nope. You need to be looking around 3.5 to 3.75" backspacing.
