Default crank & tire size?

ok, i cranked my t-bars. my rear is sitting at 40" from ground to top of wheel well and the front is sitting at 39 1/4". im going for tires after work today. question: are the stock 265/70/17's gonna look to small? should i step up to 285's? (then i will need 5 tires. 1 for spare). just looking for some opinions.

Could be a number of things, most likely is that your spacers for the 2" of lift aren't installed quite right or your alignment is off.
