285/65r18 rubbing UCA help

I recently lifted my 2016 SR5 with a 3/2'' leveling kit and added 285/65/r18 nitto ridgegrapplers on moto metal m0970 wheels (+18 offset).

The issue or concern I'm having is that now with wheels strait the tires nearly rub my UCA while sitting still and when fully locked they in fact do rub.

Is this something to be concerned about? I mostly drive on the highway and this was done purely for aesthetics but still it annoys me.

Attached are some pics, I appreciate the help!

 

You need aftermarket caster corrected UCAs to clear 285s otherwise they will rub. Pick your favorite flavor, any of them will work

Close thread

 

is it a big concern if they are that close or not really?

 

Whats the offset of your wheels?

 

+18

 

Me personally, I wouldn't want any of my suspension components coming in contact with my wheels...

As mentioned above you need aftermarket UCA's

 

thanks for the response Chris, I definitely agree and don't want any rub. I wanted a more aggressive stance on this anyways so I decided to try out spidertrax 1.25'' spacers, ill post pics once I get them. do you think they will cause rub one fenders, etc?

 

Your offset is making you rub. Either get wheel spacers or get different rims with 0 or lower offset. But then you may find you will rub on your cab Mount.

 

***update***

I added the spidertraxx 1.25" spacers and it got rid of my rubbing on the UCA. in conclusion:

+18mm offset on 18" moto metal wheels, 285/65/18r nitto ridge grappler tires with a SST 3"/2" leveling kit, and 1.25" spidertraxx spacers. Running all this without rub on UCA, only on cab mount when fully locked and going over bumps/curbs/ etc...
