275/70-r17 vs 285/70-r17

I'm debating hard right now between the two haha its a $40 difference in the BFG KO2 between the sizes so trying to see how much is a $160 difference.

Right now I have 33x12.5xr17 which ride great but out of curiosity I measure them today and its obvious the weight of the truck will bring the "tallness" down a bit but there at about 31.80" and their pretty worn down and were Atturo Mt's so I guess the thread made a huge difference. I also measured a spare that I have in my garage that is also pretty worn down and is at about 32" without any weight or rim added.

During the research between the 275 and 285 I see theirs about a half inch difference in height and width. I really want to see some picture if you guys have any???

Bellow is a picture of how my truck sits now I want to see yours

What say Tire Experts about these statement?

 

Don't see a KO2 in the 275/70 any longer so for argument's sake, here is the KO3 (both in E load to get apples to apples I suppose)
