Predictions on if this will rub?

About to change the wheel/tire setup.

• 3in lift
• 285/70/17
• +3.5 caster
• 1.25" Spidertrax Wheel adapters
• 17x7 +15 offset
• No Mudflaps
• No CMC

Well fellas, we rubbing?

I'll find out the hard way next week, but I figured I'd see what ya'll have your money on.

 

My money is no rub on streets. Trails a different story.
What's that - an effective -17ish offset? Relatively high caster.

I had similar. 2.75" lift, 285/75/16, -12 offset about 3.5 caster. No rubs.

 

Yes. Get rid of wheel spacers.

 

Damn.. Admins took my poll off in a flash lol

 

Yeah I'm estimating -18. I'll probably have to lose the spacers. Will most likely end up in too much pokage anyways

 

Hope it doesn't for you!

 

Yes.

Adding caster through UCAs pushes the wheel backwards, lending to rubbing.

 

Are you putting this combo on a Tacoma? Then yes, it will rub.

 

I’m going to say yes

 

Not added via UCA

 

I didn’t have that issue. I have +3.5 caster on both sides. No rub. At all.

 

I run OME 886 suspension with 285/75 R 17 tires on 17x8 wheels with -13 offset. I have a very minor rub in off camber situations only when I come down hard on the front end.
Only on the front bumper plastics. I've a high clearance front bumper on order that I believe will eliminate all rub.

 

I read his post wrong. He didn't list UCAs, so his increased caster came from his LCAs, which will push the tire forward more. If he was increasing caster from UCAs, then it would push the tire back, causing more rubbing. I still think it might rub because of those spacers. Guess we'll see.

 

1. You’re not getting that much caster with that much lift and stock UCA’s
2. You have to run the spacers otherwise you’ll rub your uca
3. Yes you’re going to rub.
4. edit: I was wrong about number 3. That’s 4.59” backspacing so you should be fine. If you go no spacers then you’ll decrease how much you rub.

 

Hah okay, I guess I'm not going crazy over here!

 

You running 3/8 bump stops? I hit the inner metal sheet on up travel even with 3/8 bumps

 

Yes! Yes still running JBA, sorry. I removed that because it was causing confusion. I ran into the same accusation on 3GT facebook page .
Truck has already been aligned to +3.5 caster via LCA.

Trying to post my alignment sheet but it won't cooperate

 

Yes and MOAR caster.

 

Lets not assume things my friend, you know what they say about assuming!

I agree though, spacers will most likely cause an issue.

 

I’ve had -25 offset wheels + Spacers. And I didnt rub at all. And I was on
