    I assume you mean 285/75-18, i.e. 35" tire? You'll need to trim about an inch from the fender flare and chop the cab mount. The wheels need to have max 4.5" backspacing.

    So 34" tire. That would result in less fender flare trimming than 35" tire. Probably still need to chop the cab mount on the frame.
