They would fit, but you would have some very bad rubbing to contend with. I wouldn't recommend it.
I have 8" wide wheels with 4.5" backspacing, seen here:
3.75" would stick out even further...

Will 15x8" rims with 3.75" backspacing fit, or will they stick out too far? I think I recall someone who was running 16x8" rims with 5" B.S. with 1.25"/1.5" spacers, which would come out to 3.5"-3.75" Backspacing. |

I am lucky enough to not have any front wheel liners/bumper to rub on, I will do a test fit at a local tire shop to se how bad it will be, unless anyone else chimes in. |

You will need more then 4" of lift to make those rims work if your mounting any tire bigger then a 31" tire,I know from personal experience with 16x8 rims with 3.75" BS with 265/75R16's. |
