I have 1.5" of lift up front, from Off-Road package springs. No lift in the rear. 33x12.5's on 15x10 MT Classic II's. 3.75" BS. Slight rub when wheeling.
Yes, a friend was running LT285s (on stock rims) on his 2000 Quad Cab 4WD 1500 for 4 years without any major issues. They looked a tad big for the wheel wells, but then again, they looked better than the stock sized tire.
ive got a set of 285z on my 01 non sport 4x4 and it only rubs when i go down hill hit the brakes and turn the wheel at the the same time...i havent wheeled them yet but i have played in some mud.
A a 285 will work but idk about a 305 or a 33x12.50. The 285 is only 11 inches wide compared to 12 and 12.5. I have 33x12.50 on 15x8 with 3.25 back spacing and I about .75 of an inch from rubbing at full lock. And thats with 3 inch lift.
I've got 33x12.5s on the stock offroad wheels in my 1500 and they don't rub anywhere at all. The 2500s are about the same height as the 1500s with the offroad package, so you should be fine.
