No way. That is a HUGE tire, and will never fit without a frame notch, deeper backspacing, and work to the wheel wells.

yup, requires a full frame notch (1.5") minitub, and 5.5" backspacing with a rolled lip, and depending on the frame a 1/4 inch spacer. i also have airbags to keep the squat to a minimum.

ill post some pics as soon as my camera equipment gets delivered

if people fit 295's MT's on them, then 325's will fit

Well, I can tell you I had BFG 325's on a 9.5" rim and they measured 13" section width and fit with a 1" deep notch.

I have 295/65 M/T's that measure 12.75" section width on the same 9.5" rim. They also fit nicely width wise.

My car swallowed the 275/60 M/T's.
