2005 Power Wagon Tire Size

O.K., so I was at the local Dodge dealer on Sat. with my wife....She wants a new Charger....Bonus for me, so I'm down with it. I have an 03 2500HD 4x4 303/555, and I love it!!! However, I noticed a new 05 Power Wagon

Wow, what a nice truck! Too bad you can't get the Cummins..Yet!?! I love the factory size this thing has. Now my question.......

The Power Wagon has BF Goodrich All Terrains 285x70x17 which have a diameter of 32.8" compared to my stock BF Goodrich Rugged Trail 265x70x17 which have a diameter of 31.5"....Can I run the All Terrain 285x70x17's without rubbing? Please tell me I can! I asked the guys in the service department, and all I got was "Duh, I don't know?"

I called a few tires places, and I have heard both yes and no. maybe the real Dodge experts here can help me? Thanks in advance for all of your input and/or feedback.

Thanks Again,
Turbo Kidd
