They will fit without scrubbing on 7inch rims
Tyres on the wrong sized rims will negate your insurance.

the rear will srub the inner arches a tad on full flex
the insurance thing is a null point, as they are non legal size anyway
and they will have a hard time getting out of paying unless its the cause of the accident, which the rims wont, the diameter will be as it dimishes braking capacity, big factor in all accidents
I should go find the Australian supreme court case again where the guy had 4 bald tires and still got them to payout, cause it wasnt raining so tread made no difference

They didn't scrub at the front on full lock tho.

i had 235's on 7" rims, on my no.2 sierra, nt, zero lift and saggy springs.
only place they touched was on turning lock, the weld at the rear of front arch(footwell weld), mind you, it (the zook) had no flex at all, so this comment may be null and void to your query.
will.

i had 235's on F100 7" rims, on my NT - zero lift and saggy springs, with original bumper....didn't touch anywhere
After adding 2inch spring lift - still didn't touch
When I upgraded to 30inch Muddies it touched hard in several places - same rims.
If you use WT widened rims, you may have problems as the offset could be different
