Couldn't tell you whether it would fit or not on stock suspension.

Using this calculator as a rough estimate, http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp

the overall height would be very similar. Assuming your current rims have stock backspacing and width, the 20 x 12's would be pushed out approximately 2 inches further than your current setup.

More than likely, you would have major issues with rubbing on full turns. The body lift may or may not create enough clearance to rule out any issues with contact between the fenders and the tires.

Remember that with the 3in body lift, you may also create issues with transmission linkages, engine to body grounds, etc.
