Default Do I need wheel spacers??

Hey guys I have a stock 2011 sport, I'm going to be using stock wheels(for now) I bought 285/65/20 BF Goodrich All terrains and a 2.5" Rough Country leveling kit. It's not currently installed on the truck I'm hoping to get it done this weekend.

My question, does anyone know or has anyone ran this combo and had wheel rubbing? I'm thinking about ordering .25" wheel spacers but it will be money well wasted if I dont need them.

My next project for the truck is a 3" body lift and Diablo sport power programmer.

Please help with this information!

I had 305/60/20 GoodYear SRA's on my stock wheels before all of my lifts were put on.No rubbing at all.But it was close.They are a 34.4 diameter tire,and if my memory serves me right,they were 11-11.5 wide.Fit fine without rubbing.

I have a 2011 with a ready lift 2.5 inch lift in the front. I have the exact tires you mentioned. They fit fine. Not rubbing at all.
Hope this helps.
