    305/285 is the width in mm, 75 is the aspect ratio, ie the height of the tyre is 75% of the width. All sizes are nominal and will vary to greater or lesser degree, between brands/models.

    So all things being equal, theoretically a bit over 1/2" difference.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.
