Well your half an inch short it's possible the caliper won't hit but wouldn't count on it. just try one and make sure you can turn left to right and spin the wheel
If it's not going to work the wheel will not sit flush against the spindle.

Yes, no problems. The backspacing on the stock 15x6 for a 4x4 is 3".

From my experience you can believe tbolt he
has never steered me wrong, and the man has
a lot of knowledge about BII's. If he says
they'll fit they'll fit
