I can't state for sure that they will fit. If your stocks are on 20 in rims, I believe they are like 32.9 in. Anyone can correct me if I am wrong. It sounds like they will fit if the overall diameter is the same. Only makes sense. Sorry, not more help.

+1

math on stock size (275/60-20) works out to 33" tire. your new 33"s should fit fine in the well, you might get just a little bit of rub when you lock the steering in one direction or the other if the backspacing isn't right.
but a little bit of rubbing at full turn won't really hurt anything since you're only going 2 mph when you do that. look into a front level kit to solve the rub if it does.

Same diameter, but you would be going from a stock width of 10.8 inches up to 12" wide. With the right backspace, you will be fine with no rubing.
