For anyone who is interested, I just switched out the oem Michelin ltx m/s 275/70/16 with Nitto Ridge Grappler LT285/75/16 on my stock suspension 1995 Land Cruiser. There is no issue with clearance at all (as many other posts have stated in the past). See before and after pictures below. Ride is suprisingly smooth and not too much of a difference in stiffness (although the old tires were pretty shot - measured at 30" tall before I removed them).
