295/50/16 BFG radial T/A

found it at tirerack. would this tire be safe to use with stock 16" rims on the back of our cars without any rubbing? i know its impossible to put 'em in the front. also why does it only cost about 100 bucks. also if anyone's using it i'd like to see a pic of how it looks from the back.

TIA

I used to run 225/70-15's on my car, which are 3/10's of an inch taller than thse 295's, and height wise I could barely stick my hand in between the top of the tire and the fenderwell. Theres no way that will wrk on a lowered car. That'd be pretty cool if you could though.
