OME + Total Chaos UCA and 3.0+ caster = NO RUB

just wanted to clarify...

2013 dbl cab with OME 885 and top plate spacer for full 3" lift up front 90000 shocks, Total Chaos Upper Control Arms and an alignment with 3.0+ degree of caster with 285/70/17 tires, 4.5 Back Space and +12 offset on the rims = no rubbing.

i know each truck is a little different from the other, but my truck has no rubbing issues on the fenders or cab mount.

i just wanted to put this out there for those swear you will get rubbing with this wheel and tire/suspension package.

best of luck!

 

Good to know!

 

Flex it

 

Your lucky. I have a similar setup and still rub when flexing it hard after alot of trimming and cab mount chopping

 

Pics if your truck? I would like to see how it looks with that lift. Thanks

 

The positive offset is the key factor to your non rubbing

 

^^this.

i have the exact same setup except for LR UCAs.. everything else is the same.. i rub when wheeling. usually when turning and flexing at the same time. rubs the fenders. ive trimmed and have a cab mount chop too.

 

Yeah, same boat, almost exact setup as OP and I can't fit 285/75 R16 without rubbing. Can't even leave the parking lot let alone wheel

2013 AC LB with 886 coils around nitrochargers and TC uppers. Caster is at 3.0

 

I wonder if Op has flexed it out over the past 4 years

 

Well... OP didn't specify in what situation his truck was in with no rubbing (without trimming anything!). What he probably means is it doesn't rub when its sitting in the drive way.

Until your backing out the driveway down the small incline onto the street and hear the BRRRR.

 

with a 255/70R17 the rub would be a smaller chance correct? Skinnier tire or am I stupid?

 

Correct

For what its worth I ran 285/70/17 with total chaos ucas, fox coilovers set at 2.5, 17x8.5 offset, 4.5 backspacing, method wheels. I had extremely minimal rubbing. I trimmed some spots on the front corner of the bumper as well as inner fender with some heavy duty scissors, though a dremmel would do a better job. Rubbing was extremely minimal and had to be flexed at the right angle to hear it rub on day to day driving. When offroading the cab mount would have some rubber marks on it, nothing crazy. Though I didn't go too hard with the mid travel.

I know op's offset is different but just for future reference for other members

edit: ahhhh shit old post lol

 

Time flies

You can prob run that tire without a lift.. or with very minimal rub even stuffed

 

I'm about to go look at tires and wheels today I have a spacer lift now but the UCA is maxed so thinking of the 5100 and stock coils to bring it down to make alignment right. I don't want to buy new UCA. I guess I need to make a call......

 

Prove it!

 

#truth.

OP get a wheel off the ground flexing the thing and run through the turning range.... guaranteed to rub.
