    HELLO TW,

    I used search, got a bunch of different results so here goes..


    For the front of my truck Im running TCA uppers and 2.5 kings, your pretty usual set up.

    Im running 285/70/17 and I do have 1.25 spidertrax spacers.

    I will be putting on 315-70-17 on a brand new set of rims.

    17x8.5
    BS 4.3
    OFFSET -10mm


    my ultimate question is... can i remove my spacers? will this clear the uca or do I have to keep them on. Some people I have asked kept their spacers on some people have taken them off.

    Also, my fenders got hacked to shit yesterday, CMC is done and my pinchwelds are way back.

    any insight would be great. Thanks!

    You'll be close. I had a similar set up and when for 315s but my wheel BS was 3.75 and i didn't need the spacers. Should have gone with a BS of 4 as mine poke more than id like. I think 4.3 will be ok to run without the spacers. oh and welcome to the 315 club. I used a inch body lift over cutting my fenders.

    SCS wheels?

    Read a few posts that adding 1.25 spacers actually make the tire rub more. Here's one of the posts i saw, check out link below:

    If your only concern is clearing the UCAs, then I think you'll be fine. Ive seen several Tacos have the same suspension setup and wheel specs
