Default 285/75/r16 fit?

Would a 285/75/16 BFG All Terrain T/A KO tire fit with a 3" body lift? I'm putting my lift on this weekend and I'm looking for tires. They say the overall diameter is 32.8" so not quite 33"tires. I plan on cranking my torsions to level out the truck anyway, so probably a good 2" at least on them (don't want to max out if no needed". If they won't fit without rubbing what size do you reccomend for a 16 inch rim that wouldn't rub. Thanks!

First you may want to say what year your Dakota is. Then I can move this to the appropriate Sub-Forum according to what year it is.

sorry bout that meant to post in 2nd gen fourm, my truck is a 98. I have AR "trench" 16x8 rims with 5" backspacing (+12mm offset) and plan on getting some MAXXIS MT-762 BIGHORN 8PLY 285 75 16 tires for it. the tires are 32.8/11.5/r16 for actual size. I was wondering if they would rub on the insides with a 3" lift and cranked torsion bars. If they do rub, what size can I get for my rims that won't? I've asked several times I know, but want to make sure these tires will fit with how wide they are. Thank you!
