One more quick question, I have 265/75/16 tires right now, if I go with 285/75/16 would that mean they would be wider or taller?

Wider, 285 is the width in mm. 75 is the proportional height and 16 is the rim size.

Exactly this, 285 is width in mm then there is an equation for height, 75 is some percentage of the width is the distance from rim to tread on the sidewall, a 285/75 is taller and wider than a 265/75

If I recall right a 285/75R16 works out to being a 33x10.50R16 and a 305/70R16 works out to being a 33x12.50R16
