you don't really need a bigger wheel. what you

You don't need a bigger tire, what you need are BF Goodrich K02 275/70r18s. They look more aggressive and they are very quiet and smooth on the road. A 285 in those tires there (which don't look very aggressive) wouldn't give you the improvements you were hoping for.
I think you're right. A more aggressive tire will probably do the trick...one day...in like 50k miles from now. Lol

You can definitely run the 285/70-18’s without mods, and they won’t rub. I have 285/75-17 Toyo ATIII’s on my stock BD, and the size is virtually identical…

That sounds more like an offset issue. Stock wheels are +55, and if you put different wheels on, I would bet they have more poke, which means more outside swing. So that tire can rub the crash bars, when the same exact tire on a stock 17” rim would not…
You are correct I did get a different offset, I like poke haha. Had I realized the effect it had on rubbing I may not have gone as far as I did. So I stand corrected (But poking :) )
