RE: will 285/30/19 tire fit a 19x8.5 wheel? Will it fit? Fender clearance problems??
285/30 is too wide for a 8.5 inch rim in my books (wont sit right, would be better on a 9.5 or 10 inch rims). However your tyres should fit with a 1.71% increase in size. not so bad considering the industry tollerance is 2.5%. Please dont try to fit these sizes to the front because I'm SURE they will be too fat, however for the rear this size should not be a problem at all.
