At 5.25, they won't fully tuck if you use a 10" tire (unless you roll the fender lip) but they will not stick out either. You shouldn't have issues with the banjo bolts either. Nice find.

I don't think they will tuck, but you won't have any issues with rubbing since your just dropped 3" in the rear now.
