No rubbing at all.
I put these wheels and tires on shortly after I got the truck.
It had 235/85/16's on it which are close to the same height as the 285/75/16's (the 285's are only an inch taller overall)
Yeah it's a 6.2 with 4L80E overdrive trans.
I haven't checked mileage (my trip odometer doesn't work), I'd guess upper teens-lower 20's.

I'll go take pics of my springs now...

Edit: pics




It does have 4 leafs.
My K20 Burb only has 2 leafs.
As you can see there is lots of room in the front fender.
The tire isn't totally straight in that picture...
