That sounds fine to me, I had the same(ish) setup. I bought a set of 265/75/16 tyres off a guy on ebay and tried to fit them onto a standard car. LOL!!! I upped the [!Expletive Deleted!] by 2 ins and had the arches cut. No worries.

you might need to adjust your steering stops a bit if they rub the arms

My son has 265/70's BFG's on his Disco.
Its has a standard 2 inch lift and a slight trim on the rear arches.
Its fine on the road but if he goes off road its going to cause a hell of a mess !!!
