BFG All Terrain 285/70 R17

if anyone has the above tyre on their car can you do some measurements for me?

measure[in inches];

diameter,width across the tread,width of the belly

my BFG All Terrain 265/70 R17's just fit in behind the front steering arm
a clearance of only about 1/2''...

cheers

Does this help :

But its possibly not the tyre size that it the problem, you have to take into account the off set of the wheel
 
tyre sizes are rarely what they say on the tin

the best way is to find someone with the tyre you're interested in and measure it...
 
i realise this does not answer your original question, but when I was looking at new rubber for the lc5, I tried a few sizes, and the 265/70r17 was the largest that would clear ( this was yokohama geolandar ); Again, I realise this does not answer your question, but to get something larger in there, something will need a mod. either move the wheel out a bit, or get a lift in or <insert someway to make more space>
