Maybe or even like on the old cudas or dart r/t models with just the massive hood scoop sticking out but maybe not that big. It's actually going to be a daily driver with ocational trail use for tire I have a set of 245/75r/15 that are almost brand new that I hope will fit if not I'll probably just buy so that are a little thiner

245/75/15 won't fit the stock setup so you must be thinking of doing some suspension work.  My 215/75/15 General Grabber All Terrains fit but have very little extra room.  While you're only talking about a liitle less than 2" difference in overall diameter, that 2" in height and 1.25" extra width may be really tight.  Plus it depends on the rim they're mounted on too.
