285s on a defender 110

Would 285/75s fit on my 110 extreme with a 2" OME spring lift?

Any problems? Is the drive chain/axles strong enough?

I know people running them without problems, just a bit of rubbing on the rear tray. Not sure if they are legit on the standard rims tho.

The drive train should be fine unless you fit lockers.

I now of these being run on the procomp 16x8's also with 2". They may give a light touch, not sure.

255/85's rub with a 2" lift so unless you have offset rims , they will scrub hard.

I have 285/75/16 MTR's on my 110 with disco rims with 30mm extra offset. They work fine. the suspension is stock apart from king springs that give it 1-2" lift (estimated).
