they should fit.
You can pick up some BFG All terrains at Sam's club for approx $155 per tire if you have a member ship.
IMO they are one of the best all terrain tires on the market, one of the very few that have a RMA designation for use in severe snow conditions.

Gives specs. LT265/75R/16 is recommended on 7.0" wide rim. That doesn't mean a LT 285/75R/16 won't fit. It won't be as wide on the narrower rim. It will be slightly wider and taller. I like the tread to be square to the road with the tire only being slightly wider than the wheel. If you force a wide tire on too narrow a rim, the tread will not wear flat. Adding or decreasing air pressure may help to get the right profile. I try to stay with the tire manufacturers guidelines though and hope for good wear. So if I were to run larger tires, I'd buy bigger wheels too.
