33 inch KM2 on stock rim question
Using the stock 17" rims, should I go with:
285/70/17 or
255/80/17 ?
i know that 255 will fit right over the stock 17" rims with no mods/spacers, etc. No rubbing or anything. Will it look too skinny?
does 285 require spacers? Any rubbing with the fender? Noticeable drop in gas mileage?
let me know what you think!

The 285 is 11.25" wide. Even though the KM2s do not have wide construction compared to others with square shoulders, you may still rub at full turns.
IMO the wider will 285s look better (heavy personal bias), but if you want zero interference issues go with the 255s.
If you use the magical SEARCH button you will find tire fit threads galore including for this tire width.
