Got everything installed yesterday.
22x9 Denali replicas in a bright silver finish
35x12.5x22 fury country hunter MTs
2.5” moto fab strut spacer
Ready lift UCAs
Still not overly sold on the wheels lol, hopefully they grow on me

I got it done yesterday. Haven’t found any rubbing yet. Did a 22x9 +31 offset and 35x12.5x22 MTs
Good to hear...how do you like the readylift uca's? I was going to spend extra $$ and do the Fox 2.0 coilovers but might go your route instead. I'm going to do 295/60/20's on a 20x9 with a 0 offset so I have a slightly aggressive stance.

They seem to be good quality and fit well. The ride is barely different than stock

Looks great...you probably dont have any rubbing due to your high offset

Correct, that’s why I went very conservative with the offset. Wish they stuck out a little further though. But that would of course create a clearance issue

Are you getting any squeaking noises from the new UCA's? I read that in another forum.

I’ve only driven the truck about 50-60 miles since the install. I haven’t heard any yet though.

Truck looks nice! I was on the fence between the Delmonico and Flame Red, and chose Flame just because it's so overcast and dreary around here all the time and the metallics just lose their luster.

With the +31 offset and 35x12.5, how close are you to the top of the spindle/UCA on the back of the tire?? Do you see any worry if the wheel/tire articulates down, that the UCA edge will get closer/impact the tire sidewall? I'm shopping for 22" wheels and trying to nail down a good offset that is close to stock and keeps the tires even with the fenders (don't like them to stick out past the fenders), but also looking to do 285/55R22s which are only about 11.7" wide (as opposed to 12.5").

What's your truck look like from behind along the fenders - how tucked (or flush) are the tires?

Stock Laramie wheels. 20x9 with a +19mm offset, I believe.
Ha, I'll bug you with the same question as above, but on your 295s on factory offset - how close are your tires inside to the UCA? About how much clearance do you have?

I can go take some pictures straight on from the back this afternoon. I did have 1/4” wheel spacers installed to push out from UCA. After having everything about a week, I have noticed a slight rub sometimes when at a full lock backing out of my driveway when the front suspension compresses a little. It’s not much at all and doesn’t do it when at a full lock on a level road, just when front end compresses a little. Still no rubbing at all on plastic/fenders. I do have the factory fender flares. Contemplating stacking another 1/4” spacer and I shouldn’t have any rub on UCA or any plastics.

Cool, thanks. So with the 1/4" spacer, that makes your +31mm offset more like an effective +24-25mm offset, which is in the ball park of the offsets of what I am looking at, plus your tires would stick in about .4" more than a 285/55 (so I should be good on the inside) - so really curious what the fender-to-tire looks like!

Sweet, thanks! So that there is with +31mm offset, but 1/4" spacers, correct? (just double checking). Appreciate your time in taking that pics!

Correct. 22x9 +31 offset. 1/4 spacer. Will probably stack another 1/4 spacer at some point.

With my Readylift UCA, there's just enough room to get my fingertip between the tire and the UCA.

Did you ever complete your install? Wondering what your results were!

No I actually had a huge issue...The dealer put the 3.21 in instead of the 3.92 so when the truck delivered I didn't accept it. I fought them and ended up reordering another one on Wednesday night...Now I have to wait another 6 weeks but at least it will be correct.
