    im kind of ignorant when it come to wheel and spacing so here it goes. i have second gen sport wheels with 265/70's(nearly an inch taller than stock) on my 1st gen and just installed 5100's set @1.25". right now i have a 1/4" at most between the tires and uca's. the way the camber is after the install, it looks like when i get it aligned, the tire will be rubbing the uca. at stock height my tires were rubbing the frame at full lock. what r my options? spacers will make the frame rubbing worse right?

    The second gen sports wheels have one more inch of backspacing than the 1st gen wheels, putting them closer to the uca, so this isn't surprising. A 1" wheel spacer will solve your issues.

    thanks keith! it will make my rubbing worse though right? which is ok with me since clearing the uca is more of an issue.

    I wouldn't expect you to have much rubbing with that size once the tires get pushed out a little.
