    Hey,
    You can get away from UCAs but only if you get wheels with right back spacing. I ran factory UCas and had 305/70R16 tires on ultra 164 wheels (i believe is 4" back spacing) and i was really close to rubbing. if your arent going that wide for tire size id say you should be fine but if so id look in to it.
