Will 285/70/17 fit on the stock black steel wheel or will I need a new wheel with backspacing.

I am putting a 3 inch lift on as well.

you should be fine. you might end up needing to do the body mount chop, but you really don't know till you get all set up.

Should fit pretty easily. Tires are like shoes though, some run larger and some run smaller than others, if it rubs it will be minor.

Like ^ said, depends a bit on what brand / model tire your going to be using.

I'm running LT285/70 R17 Nitto Terra Grapplers on stock rims w/a 3" lift and have no issues.

I'm running the same size with Maxxis bighorns and only a leveling kit and never had an issue. Brand of shoe can make a differance though as stated above. But the maxxis are true 33's according to their site.
