Default 285/70/17 Tire

Hi Everyone,
I have a 2011 2WD Dodge Ram 1500 with 17" x 7" stock wheels, I'm putting a 2" front leveling kit on it tomorrow and need new tires. Will a 285/70r17 tire fit on it or is 275/70/17 the largest i can go? I currently have 265/70/17 but want a bigger tire.

Thanks in advance

mine came stock with 275's and look like theres room for 285's without mods. so i assume with a leveling kit it'll fit without issue

Get the Pinion Factor/Tire Size programmed if you're changing tire sizes. So your speedo won't be off.
