325/50 dr? no, it won't handle well. Also, unless you jack the back up, they won't even clear. If you do jack the back up, then it'll handle even worse.
DR's have a soft side wall, made for launch. They don't handle well, as the tire will roll to much. If you want handling and launch, you need to go more like 275/40/17 dr.
