Only option is to have the axles done.. I am not even sure if they have a shorter control arm or not for the nbs trucks

Install a lift kit and get bigger tires. The off-road "look".

Yea depends how much they stick out. You can narrow the rear axle some and get djm arms which will narrow the front track a bit.
