Changing 1.75 to 2.85 in Cura while still using 1.75 filament is a stupid idea! One thing for sure, prints will fail, and you have a chance of damaging your printer
What brand of bowdentube are you using, I know Capricorn has 1.90 and 2.00mm inner diameter bowdentube, in both cases 1.8mm should be no problem...
Has Mari said, I suggest you replace the tubes and instead of chaging the filament diameter in cura you can adjust the flow percentage instead; this will give you more control and a more accurate print.

We don't often release an alpha version of Ultimaker Cura... So what's different this time? This Alpha contains such a huge slicing engine overhaul that we really need your help!
We wish to celebrate and honor the innovators that push forward the field, technology and world. We opted to not present it as a competition or ranked list. Every innovator has earned his spot on that list in their own way. We also look at the 3D printing industry as a whole and not limit the list to those only using Ultimaker.
