2007 king ranch tire question

I put a 2.5" leveling kit on my 2007 King Ranch with 20" rims. I want to throw some Bf Goodrich all terrain 285/65r20 on it. I am worried about the tires rubbing. I have gotten mixed responses from different tire shops that I have called. Some say "the front tires MIGHT rub slightly" others say they will be a tight fit, and some say they wont rub at all. can someone here help me out with this question? possibly post some pics?? Thanks a lot!

(Please don't respond with a "You should go with another brand of tire" kind of thing. I've done my research, and these are the tires I am going with. Thanks!)

You will be fine... if your not sure about it get the shop to mount the tires and make sure, i know for a fact discount tire gives you 30 days or 1000 miles on the tires and during that time you can swap them out.

I have 275/65/20 BFG TA on mine with the 2.5 level. I had a very slight rub on the front at full turn. I cut about 2 inches of plastic off and they are fine. Love the tires and how they filled up the wheelwells. The 285 is slightly wider so they may rub a little bit more.
