i used to have 285 70 17 bfg at's and i miss them. bfg makes a tough tire, but they also make an expensive tire and thats why i haven't gotten another set yet. my rims are the stock 17x8 and i think the sidewall on the tire was 11" and i don't have any lift, but the tire was about 1/4 inch from the front control arm with the wheel turned all the way. my brother in law has 285 75 16s and his rub in a full lock turn and i think its because his tires are just a hair taller than my old ones.
