    Ok, guys i need some suggestions. I recently purchased a 2015 tacoma with a 1.5 inch lift and 275\70\17 tires. The tires rub the uca at times so how do i safely install 1\4 wheel spacers without jeopardizing safety.

    You don't. Either change the wheels to give you more backspacing, change your UCA to give you more clearance, or change the tires to be a narrower tire. 255/75/R17 is about the same diameter and weighs much less and would clear the UCA rubbing issue.

    I’ve run 1/4” spacers for years without issue. Just get extended thread lugs and you’ll be fine.
