This photo will give you some idea of 4.75-5.5 and 245-275 clearances:

The biggest problem he is going to run in to is at the price point he wants to spend he will have a hard time getting a BS to use max tire size. You need custom made wheels to make sure you are dead on for offset. I used 285's but if i was 1/4" in or out I would rub.
