Default 285/70/17 Tires

I have an '07 Tahoe LS 2WD. Do you think a 285/70/17 will rub up front?

I think this size tire would look good on the stock wheels, but I haven't heard of anybody running these at stock height with the stock wheels.

Oh, and if you're using this wheel/tire combo, post up some pics (if you don't mind)

Nice! Those look good. Those tires have an overall height of 31.5".

The 285/70/17 have an overall height of about 33". I'm just wondering how tight those will be?

Hell, I may just do a 2" front spacer (leveling kit) to make sure they fit. I just really don't want to go that route if I don't have to.
