Default largest tire on stock ride

I'm riding on a stock 255/70/16 tire and I have a 2WD so the front rides low what is the max size I can use with no/or minimal rubbing.

I have 285/60/17 on Denali rims (one inch wider then the 16's) and there is evidence of slight rub on the sway bar at full turns of the wheel. But its very slight and I still have paint on the bars so the rub cant be that much.

I had two Toyos on two different trips down the I-5 blow out for no apparent reason. The circumstances of the blow out where completely different. I sent the surviving Toyos in to the lab for x-raying and Toyo told me that it was not there fault.
