No you couldn't and still be that low. The tire is a 275-60-15 which is 28" overall tall. A 255-35-20 is 27" tall. It's all about the overall diameter. The only possible way you could get that low with stock hinges may be with some 13" daytons or something with a very small tire. Changing hood hinges isn't a big deal compared to the work it takes to go that low. I had my hinges on and done in about 5 hours.
