285's give you another 12mm of lift but cause fuel economy issues, can contact the body and stress CV's and steering components.
Most people don't go there

Like above 265/75/16 or 265/70/17 or 32s really 31.6" diameter 265mm wide
285/75/16 or 285/70/17 32.6" or there about and 285 mm wide.
the 70 or 75 is side wall height so a little less for bigger diameter rims. ie 70% of 265 is side wall height.
There are tyre size calculators to calculate tyre sizes.
265/75/16 are 31.6"
265/70/16 are 30.5"
Standard rim off set is +38 which will work fine.
If you go after market wheels may as well go +20 or +25
with +20 rims the centre line of the rim sits 18mm further out from car than standard +38
Google taught me about rim off sets.

Although your Tri will get to the tip without any mods, just easier and maybe a bit less damage with a few extras.
