Well I checked American Eagle tires website & it looks like Alex is running 4.5" of backspacing on his 16x8 rim. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

My wheels have +2mm offset. I would stay in that range for 285s.
Ray you should check tirerack.com, they have them in stock, there are plenty (almost all) of manufacturers present with tire of this size.

The original post asked what backspacing and or offset should i look for to make sure that my tires do not rub, and that the spacing is correct?
. It does not matter if they are 15 or 16 inch rims.

My wheels have +2mm offset Grifter679, In case you're wondering... here's a link to the full spec's on Alex's wheels, per the manufacturer's website... http://www.eaglewheels.com/149.htmHis rim p/n is 1499-7865 & 1499-7866 (different for left & right rims). Just make sure the rims you buy rims have a similar spec and you should be okay. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
