Rim and tire combo??

Hey guys, i've got a 02 Super-Crew FX-4, and am looking to put 285/75/16's on 16x10 rims. Am i going to have clearance issues?? I have anticipated cranking up the torsion bars a little (to level it out) And may have a custom 1" body lift made. Only reason i have'nt opted for the full 3" body lift is the fact that it wont fit in my garage... (But hey, i need a bigger one anyways..)

I ran my 285/75-16 (33x11.50) BFG AT KO's on 16x10 Eagle Alloy 058's (with 4 1/2 inches of backspacing) at stock height. All I had to do was trim about 1/2 inch of plastic off my front bumper's valance. I didn't touch my torsion bars. Personally, I'd go ahead and get 305/70-16's (33x12.50). BFG recommends a maximum rim width of 9 inches with 285's, but I'm not having any problems in over 28,000 miles. The only reason I didn't get 305's is because BFG didn't make a 305 in 2001. You would just have to trim a little more off your valance to fit them. Here's some pics of my Screw before I installed a body lift.
