Is it possible to fit 285's ?

[Tdaz250]

I just cranked my TB's and i'm wondering if thats going to be enough to fit 285s. I can see that the front end went up a little bit but not a ton and i dont want to buy torsion keys if i dont have to.

They should fit!!

I run 285s with just cranking the TBs Ive got no rubbing issues at all

what year is your truck? mine is an 06 and came factory with 265's and i'm pretty sure 285's would fit just fine on mine. but thats my 06 for whats its worth

Mine is a 2000. Would the width of the tire matter? I think the rims im looking are are 9" wide.

they fit on my 04 with no rubbing before i cranked the torsion bars so you should be fine

I also have 285's on my truck but like a couple other guys here mine are on the stock wheels. If you go wider in wheel width and or change the backspacing you may start getting contact on the outside of the fender on hard turns and/or when you stuff the wheel.

just put cooper st 285/75r16 onstock rims of my 01 silverado z71 w/ no mods and they fit great and no rubbing issues. great improvement in the look from the old passenger tires that was on.

i had 285s without doing anything to the TBs. i did end up adding torsion keys and 2 inch blocks in the back. i now run a 295 70 17 on an 8 inch rim, with still no rubbing!
