That had to be on bad offset wheels. a 245/40 fits pretty easily with the correct offset, and a 285 is only 4cm wider, or a less than and inch and a half wider. I agree that wont fit under an unmodified fender, but again, with the right offset, it would not require that much of a hack job. Especially if your suspension has the 32mm hollow front sway bar they top guys are running, and fairly stiff springs. They ain't going up very far anyway...
