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.

My 32x9.5 Simexs have 245/90-15 written on the sidewall.

235/85/16 are similar sized also as are the abovementioned 265/75/16 and 7.50/16

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