New here / offset/spacer/UCA guru needed

Bought my truck slightly used and said it has a leveling kit and came with the wheels and tires it has but I have noticed it has some wear marks on the UCA and I’m a total noob and need some advice I know the tires are too big but I wanna know how to fix it correctly I know wheel spacers will work? But will the ball joints be screwed? Any and all advice is awesome

 

What marks are you referring to? Can’t tell from photo.

 

Your Nokia camera phone needs more flash.

 

What's wrong with it?

 

Get new UCAs. Then some real coilovers. Welcome to TW.

 

Pls change title to not say help/halp.

We try to keep those designated for people stuck/brokedown/in emergency

 

I will take a better pic right now , my iPhone 5 belongs in a museum.

I appreciate all the responses.

 

Changed the title thank you!

Here are some better pics

 

Ok, those are def scraped at speed.
Ill leave the rest to offset/spacer/uca gurus

 

Right on , id like to do what’s best for the truck

 

Does your truck have a Cab Mount Chop (CMC)? If not and running 285’s when you push your wheels out there is a risk of rubbing on the cab mounts.

 

Iv heard about that but no I do not

 

Would it be better to get new tires and wheels or what do y’all recommend

 

So it’s not a huge prob with a slightly easy fix?

 

If you add spacers to push the wheels out (keeping the 285’s), there is a risk of rubbing on the cab mounts. A CMC is about ~$200.

You can try running 275’s and keep the rims you have. That may solve the rubbing on the UCA’s. Some tire shops will give you a 30-90 day trial period.

You can go back to stock or try some other combinations.

As always, no guarantee, YMMV

I ran 285's on my gen 2 with 3" lift in front, 1" rear in rear and 1.25" wheel spacers and they run behind the tire. On my gen 3 with same set up on lift with 1.5" spacers and 265/75/17 and it works out good. 285's are nice, but you damn near need a 4" + lift in front to not have the front tires rub. I hope this helps.

 

Don't see how those tires would rub the UCA there. Someone enlighten me.

 

I’m confused by that rub spot as well
