285/75/15 would be about 32" if anybody made it.

The only 285/75 I know of fits a 16" rim, and is a (roughly) 33" tyre.

265/75R16 is nominally 32", and a very common size of 16" tyre with a huge range available and excellent load ratings. If you want 32", I recommend finding some 16x7" or 16x8" rims and buying something in this size.

There are no stupid questions, but there are a LOT of inquisitive idiots

This may seem like a silly question but if you already have 15inch rims why not just get 32s?
