Maybe, a 285x70x17 (33x11.5) may be a better fit on a 7.5 inch wide wheel.

Close to the same height, but narrower. Will fit better on a stock wheel.

The shop I took my tires to had no problem mounting/balancing them. Call and ask around they were actually anxious to see what everything would look like finished.

I took mine to a mom and pop type place and they put them on without a question.
