    alright, just have read this entire post and a whole lot of other things. I have a really good idea of what needs to happen to clear 35's. My setup 2.5-3 in lift foxt with rr, superbumps and rims are17x7 w/4.5 bs. Im going to run 35x11.5x17. I think I'll be close to frame and rr, but since the tires I'll be running are 1 inch narrower than most on this thread, would this work without spacers to clear frame, rr and spindle gussets (coming soon). Anyone have a similar setup that can chime in?

    Most MT tires are built with stronger thicker sidewalls anyways no matter the load range but still offer good pliability. Back in the day load range indicated the # of plys today they are just rated at that ply number so load range is a little less of a factor due to the technology.

    Looks like you're running spacers?

    Yes I am, they are 1". Ideally I didn't want to have to go that route but I was given the tires for free and the only way to clear my UCAs was with a spacer or pay a few thousand again for new wheels with a negative offset.

    I'm sitting around 25k km now with them with some hard miles and they are holding up well.

    Group Question. I have very slight rub on my stock UCAs. At full lock. 6112s both at top clip with a lean spacer. Just noticed a little polish today. Have about 5000 miles on the 28575R16 Cooper AT3 XLTs. Seems to just rub on the top of the knarly side jobs. I stuck a 1/4 inch spacer on today and it fixed it. Removed them and I think I'm gonna live with it till the next tires or wheels

    You thinks it's ok to just live with a very slight rub ?
    Slightly less agressive tires next time will take care of it.

    Just be careful when fully locked and off roading. Although that shouldn’t happen much anyway because you want to avoid binding the drivetrain.

    I'm just gonna deal with till I get some SPC Uppers or tires. I like my wheels so I'll work around the rub. It's super minor but I'm ocd about this stuff....thanks.

    Mine does the same, but only at full lock in reverse. I just avoid it and trust that I won’t really be in that position when off roading.

    Finished reading this whole thread. Took a while but good stuff. I think I got all the info I needed to step up from my 255/85R16’s to 35x10.5x17’s at stock ride height. Thanks for all the info and banter. :thumbsup:

    I’m a sucker for a pizza cutter. Been running them for years.

    You guys with the the SPC Upper control arm, what setting are y’all using with your 35s?

    I think heart surgery is easier than screwing with that thing,

    What's difficult about it? You adjust it to push the tire forward (reduced caster) or backwards (increased caster). Also, fixing your camber by moving it laterally.

    I'm set on D, which 0 extra caster and have just about 0 camber. I may reduce caster a bit later on up top, but max out caster in my LCAs.

    How much caster are you at on D with the LCAs maxed out? What is your ride height?
