Use this calculator and see the difference between your stock tire and the 285.

I know they will fit on a 98' F250LD 4X4, I put a set on yesterday!!! Whoo Hooo...They look sweet, and they dont hit at all. I don't know for sure about the 2 wheel drives, but I think if you go through some of the older threads in this category you will find the answer. If I remember correctly people said it would fit, but trimming and or torsion tweaking would be necessary. But don't take that as a yes, do a little more research, I KNOW I have seen that topic addressed here several times....
Good luck!

Kauffman -
I also have a 2wd and am looking to get the exact same tires: 285/75/16 BFG MT's. I was at Home Depot a couple of days ago and parked right next to an F150 with 285/75/16's and I am positive that it was a 2wd and it was not lifted. They weren't BFG MT's so I don't know if that matters. They looked great but I'm sure they would rub in the front, they took up the entire wheel well. I almost wanted to wait for the guy to come out so that I could ask him! haha
