285/70 x 17 is a 33 to bigger on a 2" lift, you may get a 275/70 x17 or 32.5" on a 2" lift.
The 7.5" wide rim would fit a 285 at the max
As for legal DFK

I'm more likely to go with a wider tyre then the overall diameter. A 17" is ample for me. I'll stick with the 65 profile but if a 275/65/17 will fit on the standard rim, i'll probably swing that way. Cheers.

I would be keen to hear if a 285 would fit. If not, i think even a 275 on the standard rim would be good. As long as it's a safe upgrade & legal. Mind you, laws might be abit different between Aussie & NZ.

Mate are you talking about it fitting on the rim, fitting on the car, or is it legal as these are all different questions which need to be answered together.

As helmut already said, the rolling diameter is not only dependent on one parameter. The profile (ie 65) is a proportion of the width (ie 275). Hence a 275/65/17 is a smaller diameter than either of a 285/65/17 or a 275/70/17. Therefore... A 275 will only be a 31" diameter in a given profile.
Anyway, if it helps the original question - I have 265/70/17s (which are about 31.6") on my stock 2011 SR5 rims with a 2" lift and they don't rub whatsoever. In terms of width I have nearly an inch between the inner sidewalk and the upper control arm, so I would think you could go a 275 and maybe a 285 without hitting the UCA. When you deflate you tyres off road however... The sidewall will change shape and possibly rub, I haven't checked the clearance at lower than road pressures.
Legally - I have no idea, but you're not talking about much of an increase in size so I imagine you'll be fine.

Thanks for that update, it pretty much answered my original question Cheers.
