I think they will fit????
Ok so i am about to order my 3" body lift and get the tires around christmas time. I will going with a 35x12.50x17 
now as we all know with my model truck the freakin UCA kinda gets in the way.... SO i went out to check and see how far is the UCA from the tires i got on now.... I am running 305/70/17s which equal a 33.8x12.1x17.... i threw in some pics to see what u guys would think. My buddies truck is a 35x12.5 and his tires look about a inch wider than mine so i have no idea and his truck is a ford so i could just put his rim and tire on(which he has different rims so it wouldnt matter). What do u guys think? do i need to get another set of spacers lol

Hoss I think you can get away with some 1/4in spacers and it would fit. Your tires are .4in skinnier than the new ones will be. That means you will have another .2in on either side.
You could probably get away without buying a set of spacers but I think for how cheap the 1/4in ones are I would feel more comfortable.
Let me know if you have any ?s on the body lift

Hoss! What the hell is happening brotha! Been a while........
I think the tires will fit with the spacers you have. I definately need to get some spacers after seeing how much room you have in there. I can barely slide a piece of paper between my UCA and the tire. Rubbage FTL!
Side note: We plan on heading back to WV after Christmas, hopefully to hit another jackpot. Id like to check out those clubs you were talking about
Be good my friend!

just installed my 285's today... very close to UCA but they don't rub(very happy about that) love how bigger tires change the look of the truck completely, it sits at least 2" higher all the way around now... just wanting my leveling kit now
