I have 285 75 r16s on a 16 x 8 wheels with a +10 offset. No rubbing on the arches but the back tyres do rub the edge of the spring mounts on full bump. That's with HD springs rear which give about 15mm of lift.

I do. No problems at all. Comes down to the offset of your wheels.

I'm running 285's on Matt Lee's. Offset is just right for the tire. Does anyone know what the offset on the Matt Lee's is? it's a Landrover thing...

I don't know whether there was a 'standard' specification for them. I think they were often manufactured toclient specifications? Mine are 0 offset

285/75 STT PRO's on RVS Semi-Beadlocks with et10. Have had to widen turn circle so could do with 20-30mm spacers to get the better turning circle back.
