Probably too wide to fit.

stock is probably 31x10.50, so 285/75 is a bit wider so it will probably rub on the inner fender

Not many folks here can help you, as most don't jump to a 16inch rim. Stick em on, you should be fine.

Depending on back spacing, you should fit okay. Those are basically a 33x11.0 tire, and you can run 33x10.50's on that truck with zero lift.

You will probably need to pound back your pinch weld, but i would bet that would be all. You may need to pound it pretty good.

Good luck, let us know how they look.

heres a pic of the vehicle they are coming off of, im parked next to it, that Mitsubishi belongs to a friend of mine who wants to be able to lower the Tbars some in the front and put his wheel arch extensions back on with worrying about rubbing - http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2405186/3

32.8 is a 33. There are very few tires that actually measure the size they say.
