Question 285/65/20 bfg ???

I did a search and couldn't find a clear answer. I need a little advise anyone running 285/65/20/DIA-34.7/WIDTH-11.5 BF Goodrich's on the stock 20 inch rim with a level kit? The truck is an 08 4x4, If so any issues with rubbing? I do know that 06-08 have the same suspension anything prior will be different for clearance issues (spring cup) Thanks (o:

I am also looking at the LT275/65/20/DIA-34.09/WIDTH-10.98 Nitto Terra Grappler, this should fit as the width is the same as the stock goodforayear tire on there right now

Thanks for any help...

Steve

No issue's as long as you've got a leveling kit. Stock width is 10.8" and 33" tall. The width on those isn't as big as a deal as the overall height is. 35x12.5's may rub slightly at full lock, but you should have no issue's at all with any of the tires listed.
