Default Question about 275 70 R17

I'm looking for DD tires, and I'm interested to buy 275 70 R17

I read somewhere in this forum that it will rub on the front brake lines at full turn. (dangerous )

I have a 3.5" lift (2.5" because of my heavy winch and bumper) Do you think that I can buy this dimension? (I don't want wheel spacers or offset rims)

I want to be sure at 100% or I will buy 265 70 R17

I ran 285s for awhile. No spacers (at first). No rubbing. You'll be fine... the only thing you MAY have to do is invert your rear SB links to avoid contact with the tires absent spacers.

Thanks for the fast reply

About the rear SB links, it's already done!
