is anyone running 285/75r16's?

I have a 2002 Explorer Sport 4x4. I'm picking up the 1.25" Tuff Country torsion lift keys today, and ordering a PA883 3" BL for it. Once that comes in and everything is installed the X is going to the spring shop to get the rear rearched and lifted so it sits 1" higher in the rear then the front. I'm hoping to be able to run HerculesTraildigger M/T in a 285/75r16. Was wondering if anyone runs this size and what fitment issues you have. IE: have to run spacers for clearance to turn.

I have just a TT & shackles and run 285/75/16 Nitto Terra Grappler. "Sliver X" on here runs the same setup. I do rub a little at full lock.

So running a spacer should fix that? I'm guess ing it rubs either the control arm or the inner fender. How much spacer do you think it would need? I'm just trying to have everything on hand once I start because its my daily driver and I cant afford it to be down for more then a day or two. If I dont use it I can return it so....

The rub is very small and only at full lock. I have being running this set for almost 2 years and it has not bothered me enough to put a spacer on. But I bet 1/2" or less.

Perfect. I can get that over the counter at the local speed shop if needed. Thanks for your input
