Will this work??

I have a 1998 2wd F150 and i have the 7.5" Fabtech lift kit on the way and some 315/75R16 Pro Comp mud terrains sitting out in the garage and i was wondering if I could get away with the whole setup on my stock rims for a little until I can save up for some new wheels?

The OEM wheels have 4.5 inches of backspacing which is what almost all aftermarket offroad style wheels for the 97-03's have so there shouldn't be a problem.
