285/70/17 too big for 3" lift?

Similar question for my 2007 4Runner SR5 V6.
I just installed the Old Man Emu 2" lift kit that I bought at Slee Offroad in Golden. I'm planning to put a set of Falken Wildpeak AT3W tires on it soon. Factory tire size is 265/65 R17. Will I have any issues with the following sizes? Note that I still have the stock front & rear bumpers.
265/70R17
255/70R17
P285/70R17

One more to add... 275/70/17. From my research it gives pretty close to the same effect as the 285, but without quite as many fitting headaches. Of your list, the 265/70 will have the least issues because they are narrower, even though they are still taller than stock. 265/70 is also a quite popular upgrade size.
Thanks for the info! Last night I finally managed to get in touch with my brother. He installed the same OME 2" lift on his 2006 4Runner and is using 265/70/17 tires with no issues. Searching through the various AT tire brands it appears that it's easy to find that size which gives me a lot of options.
I was nervous as well but shouldn't have been. Via the TRD PRO suspension, new UCAs and super flex rear coils ended up with 2.5" up front and 1.5" in back with Falken Wildpeak 285/70/17 on the trail rims.
Probably did not need to trim or mess with the front fender, but did it before the install. Mud flaps still on as well. = AWESOME RIDE!
