That's a damn good price.

I would go buy them now before they raise the price. They'll probably fit as is but if there is any rubbing you may have to put lift springs on.

I had the same tire and they rubbed BAD with my new torsion keys cranked up. I doubt they'll fit.

Thats mine with keys cranked up all the way and shackles. I had to cut the front wheel well to make them not rub.
