    Im sure you'll rub. But not alot. A little trimming should do. and people told me if you go 3 inches, you're more than likely gonna have to switch out your UCA's because of allingment issues.

    switch out the UCA because you cant get the alignment perfect? i heard that with the 285 they might rub on the UCA. is that true? because i really dont want 265s b/c they will just look a bit to small if u ask me

    More likely rub on the cab mount.

    i have 3" pro comp lift kit w/ 285 BFG's. i tried putting the 285's on my stock wheels, thats when i had rubbing. an aftermarket wheel with 4.5inch backspacing will push the wheel out far enough to have no rubbing. thats what did the trick for me. i still have my stock UCA's and no rubbing on them, but the allignment is a little off and can only be corrected with aftermarket UCA's. i just ordered camburg uniball UCA's and they should get the truck running correct.

    well for 2nd gen. being 265/75/16 will fit stock no lift. 285/75/16 should fit with proper rim and a small lift IMO.
