I wouldn't go much bigger than 285, although if you really wanted to I think you could stuff 315s under there.

I'm running 275's. I really don't think 295's would work, but I'm not too sure

285's would be recomened I would think. 295's would fit but you would not get full contact area. but if you a 295 was cheaper for some stupid reason I would run it. if your rim is to nearrow the sidwall gets distorted a bid and affects the width.

295's will fit, but i'd go with a nitto or Kumho MX because the BFG's get pretty wide.
