Default Will I need rear spacers?

Have a 99 dodge dually and currently have 235/85/16s. My tires are pretty well worn so decided to finally get new ones. I'd like to get 285/75/16s as well as gettin a 2" levelin kit but my question is would I need a spacer between rear wheels and if so how big? If anyone has input that'd be great thanks

they will fit without spacers. but under a load they will squat and rub. 1.5 spacers will be enough but i heard something about having to cut your studs off a lil bit so i went with 2 in spacers

You won't need to cut studs with 2 inch?
