Default 285/65-18

I have looked and looked and having a hard time finding the answer... so I apologize in advance.

Just bought a 2011 Screw FX2 with eco. Having a 2" level kit put on next week. Want to fill out the wheel wells with new tires. Could I put 285/65-18 on with out rubbing? Or should I go with the 275/65-18. I have seen a 4x4 do it without issue, but have not seen a 4x2. If you have pics of either it would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Had Revos on previous 4Runner and was very pleased with ride, noise level and traction on dry and wet surface.

i put on stock sized BFG AT's and they improved the look of the truck 10 fold. even for a stock tire size.

Do you think it will look strange with an agressive tire like bfg at or something similar and then to have FX2 stickers on side?

not really. Ive seen lots of 2wd trucks with bfg a/ts on them. I would stick to stock size tho. since you have lower gears and it you will notice the bigger tires slowing you down.
