Backspacing 285/70/17

Greetings. I have confusion on the correct wheel offset for running 285/70/17. Most of the wheels I’ve been looking at are zero offset, 8.5” and I’m thinking this might not work ? Running 2.5” suspension lift. Any help is appreciated. (Gen3)

 

I'm running P285/70-17 Cooper Discover AT3 4S tires on 17x8.5 Icon Rebound wheels with zero offset and about 2" of lift up front. Only rub is when the wheel is cranked in reverse and, even then, it's minimal. This is on a Gen 2 DCLB 4x4 Sport. YMMV

 

Any photos? I'm thinking of getting these tires as well

 

I can send some. PM me your cell number. Keep in mind, my truck is a gen 2 and you appear to be have a gen 3.

 

Although many folks have gotten away with this setup and no rub, some have a slight rub. With a 0 offset and 285 tire width, its possible you will have a rub. You would likely need to remove your stock mudflaps and modify the front air-dam if its equipped. It is also possible to need to modify the Cab mount as the front edge of the tire could catch it on full lock turns.

If you are running the stock wheels it may fit without modifications and no lift.

PM on the way.
