    I already did my CMC so that shouldn't be a big deal. Any idea what size spacers I'd need?

    I snagged my jba's on the BST but kinda wish I did more research. I guess having a lil more poke ain't the worst thing in the world

    Ordered the SPC arms I’ll let y’all know how it goes. One day within the next 5 years someone with a DB lift with stock rims on 315s will have the same issue as me and find this forum. I will be the test rat. You’re welcome.

    Do you know the specs of the wheels? The stock TRD off roads have 5" of back space so you would want a 1"+ wheel spacer. That wheel has a +25mm offset. if you have somewhere near +10 to -12 you should be ok with a 285 width.

    edited: Just looked up the SEMA wheels and they are +4. You should be closer to 4" of backspace. You shouldnt need spacers. it would make rubbing worse.

    All that shit confuses me so much haha. Are we still talking about rubbing on the UCA or rubbing on the cab mount?

    With the spacing you have now, you shouldn't rub the UCA. Adding spacers would make you rub the cab mount.
