They rubbed on my Sport, so I just did the torsion bar thing and tightened my mudflaps up, and cut off the corners on the front bumper/fender

285's are 33 inches tall and are around 11.5 to 12 inches wide. You need some major clearance for those not to rub the frame or hit the inner fender well. I have torsion keys on mine and 285/75/16's on stock aluminums and they would rub on the frame at full turn but cleared the fender and front clip. I decided to go with a 33/12.5/15 on offset rims to keep the tires from hitting the inside frame. It worked but now the tires want to hit inside the inner fender and clip. With some trimming and grinding they no longer hit. Bottom line, stick with a 32 incher........they just fit better and are less headache!!
