what do you mean only slightly and how long do the grabbers last and how good in mud,snow,and ice
Its an all-terrain tread pattern, so, performance in any given terrain is going to be a compromise..... According to what I have read, performance is pretty good on snow, and not-deep mud. Dry is great, ice is so-so. (of course, ANY tire without studs is going to be fun on ice.......)
They will rub the control arms when you cut the wheel all the way if you have the stock swirly rims like these
Those tires are that size. They just barely stick out past the fenders but not at the top of them.
I would to with BFG if I was you.

A 285/75/16" tire is a 33 x 11.5" tire. A 255/85/16" tire is a 33 x 10.5" tire (although generally these 255 tires have an "E" rating). Slightly narrower but the same height. So that little difference MAY keep you from rubbing and sticking out so far.
