They can, but there will be more issues compared to a smaller diameter tyre.

What size wheel do you want to run them on?

What width and offset are they? Those will determine if you're going to need to roll the guards or not, although you might get away with it if not lowered.

They probably won’t fit under the spring seats either, will need coilovers

No chance they will fit under the spring seats.

Yeah they will, you just need a lump hammer & an angle grinder.

Are the Bilstein shocks shorter like the Volvo ones? If they're not there might be a chance you could get it under. I fit a 235/45R17 under the stock shock spring seat.
