    Looking to install 3/2 superlift with their UCA on top of 295/70/R18 falken wildpeak AT3W with 18 x 9 +18 gear alloy wheels. Does anybody see an issue with this setup besides having to possible do some minor trimming?

    You should be fine. Considering you had the factory wheels and tires 265/70/18 with +60 offset . Your 295/70/18 are 2" taller and +1" wider. With that +18 offset you would move away around 1" from your uca and 2.25" farther out. This would be considered semi aggressive. I'm running 295's on a factory wheel +60, using 1.25" wheel spacers. Your setup would stick out 1" more than my setup. I have minimal rubbing @ full lock in reverse. I will find a pic to give you an idea of stick out.

    Currently I have 285/55 on a factory 20x8 with +60. I do have a basic understanding of how the offset works. So going from a +60 to a +18 moves the tires outward 42 (assuming) millimeters. What's the math used to figure out the distance moving away from the UCA, and why is the further out distance even greater. Why is that number not the same?

    Did some searching and found a calculator. So keeping the same wheel width would move it out 42 mm, but with going to a 9 from what I believe to be a factory 8 width moves it out 29.3 or 1.1". So just added the difference back to the original offset difference to get 54.7 or 2.1" further out. Hopefully that's right
