    Just got my lift installed. 5100's all the way around, fronts set at .85 Eibach coils (1.6" lift) driver side spacer from toytec, 2" Toytec (Deaver) AAL. Now I just need to get some new tires and I'm set.

    Thanks guys for all the comments! Now I'm looking into getting new tires, here's the dilemma: I want to keep the stock rims, I want to go with 285's or possibly 265/75/16. I want the wheel with to be lined up with the fender or even a little bit out, but I don't wanna get spacers. I know that if I go with 285's I will rub my stock UCA, so If 285's will fit and be flush with my fender that's the route I wanna take and ill get new UCA's. Whats everyone's take on this?

    to push your wheels out you're going to need either new rims or wheel spacers unfortunately, the 285s will be wider but not that much

    pretty sure you're gonna need wheel spacers with stock rims to fit that fat of a tire with the 285's.
    265/75/16 will fit on stock suspension.. so those would fit without any modifications. but i'm not sure if it would give you the exact look you're looking for.

    does he have stock UCA's because i've read of a lot of people rubbing at full turn. I keep reading of a lot of people not liking spacers is there a reason? If I can pass on not buying new UCA's and have spacers give me the same clearance and also have my tires sit flush with the fender then that might have to do? any ideas?

    Is your alignment in spec? if so why the need for new UCA's?

    alignment is in spec.....aftermarket UCA's give more space between the tires.....or at least the ones i have.

    My b they are 275s, but have 3/4-1" of room. I got fat fingers :(
    TO answer your second question, the tires are sucked in a lil. my dad is ganna buy 1.25" wheel spacers, and it will make them stick out like a half inch.

    thanks for the picture, I'm still debating if the truck would look funny with the tires not flush with the fender.
