285's should be fine. I run 315's with no lift but they rub on the controll arms on sharp turns. I will go to 285's also when these wear out.

looking into the nitto terra graplers. have 265's now, wanted to go a little taller but want to make sure they will fit before i order them. sits at stock level now. Actually the front might sit a hair lower than stock because of the heavy front bumper i have on it.

I eventually installed 2" leveling kit, not for tire clearance but just to level the front a bit. Og I'm running an 8" wide wheel now and there's still no contact.
Hey, check out the Nitto ...

No problem with the 285's on the ground on my '01. Had a problem putting one in the spare rack - - - had to put 2 - 18" 2 x 4's between the frame and the spare tire, and it was real close to the rear end.

My '01 was stock, the trailer hitch was the big problem. I could have made it fit by craming the tire between the front edge of the trailer hitch where it bolted...
