I have a 2" Spacer and my 285's don't rub at all and I have lots of space between them...Probably just a 1" spacer on 265's.

My spacer kit came as more of an adapter....Bolted the spacer on using the old studs and then the adapter had its own studs.

265/75s cleared in the rear of mine, so do the 255/85s. Oddly enough, when I put the front 285/75s on the back they didn't rub either, but I don't think I could haul anything without them rubbing.
