another tire question

can i get 285/75/16s on my truck? i have 2.5" of lift in front with a 2" AAL in the back. im running 265/70/16s now with 4" BS on the wheels. tires look way to small and i think 265/75s would be a waste cause they cant be that much bigger. HELP

do it, you might have some rubbing on the pinch weld, but just hammer that sucker.

with that much back spacing i doubt you will rub on the frame.

but you might rub a lil on the fender. can you mount just one and check for clearance?
