    Whats happening tacoma world,

    quick question for everyone what would be your primary recommendation to eradicate tire rubbbing on 2008 toyota tacoma? I currently have 285/75/16 tire size but need to gain some clearance between UCA's and tire. I recently put in some bilstein 5100's which helped take away some of the rubbing but wondering if I get new upper control arms ( thinking total chaos) will help get rid of the rest of the rubbing. All info and advice is appreciated.

    What wheels are you running? What’s the offset? Width?

    Your wheels are the issue. Wheel spacers or new wheel to put the tire on.
