    I'm leaning towards the 1.75 but don't want it to be nose high. I've had the leaf spring recall done, but depending on where I measure the front is 1-1.5" lower.

    Installed 2/3 BAMF skids. That front IFS skid wasn't too challenging to install, being 80lbs. Next is the rear transfer case skid

    New kicks for the lobster. Was a long process and months of looking around but the final product came out nice. Lots of trimming needed and still more to do. But damn these look bad ass!!!! Anyone interested in these just a heads up. You will need extended wheel studs. Toyota matrix studs are 1/2" longer than factory and worked perfectly. Oh... and did I mention trimming... Yeah lots of trimming :rofl::rofl:these are a 285/70/17 on a 17x9.5 wheel. Truck is on a 2" leveling kit. Also little suggestion I used a ball joint press from oreillys to remove the stubborn wheel studs.

    So just to make sure my tire is too close to my UCA, right?

    20180204_200553.jpg 20180204_200510.jpg

    Besides a different size tire is the best option a small wheel spacer? Maybe 1/4"? Thank you for any help!

    So would a set of 3/4" hub centric wheel spacers be the best solution?

    Yes they would be, but you may have to trim the studs

    Different wheels would be cleaner.

    That wouldn't be a big deal.
    I completely agree and plan on a set of SCS wheels, but it's not in the budget right now so spacers will have to do.

    Are those Black Rhino Armory wheels? What's the backspace on them?
