    Will be close to hitting the uca, but some of the guys running rockstars (5" bs) claim no rubbing on the uca with the 12.5s.

    It's still going to require a lot of trimming.

    I had 18x9 +0 wheels and used to run 285/60/18's with zero rubbing at stock height. You should be able to clear the UCA's with 285/65/18's on 18x9 +0's, and with 3" of lift you shouldn't have too much rubbing. You'll probably still have some trimming to do, but it shouldn't require a significant amount.

    Yes, UCA is Upper Control Arm.
