tire size upgrade

So the time has come, my tires will not pass inspection coming in june and i need to put some new ones on my baby. obviously i want to go up in size but seeing as i only have a leveling kit and my I am already running 265/75/16 will i see an issue with rubbing if i bump up to 285? and i am planning on putting wheel spacers on as well for some hope that will avoid the issue. let me know guys.

thanks

Don't do wheel spacers, They're almost as bad as plastidip

I ran 33's on my truck for a short time with just maxed out torsion bars and an add a leaf. They cleared, but I had to trim my front flares and valance. I also had #1 Torsion Bars, which don't sag as bad as the F or B bars. If your Sport has either of those, you may not be able to clear 285's depending on how sagged your bars are.
