    Photos of those who always ask if the UCA and Tire rub.
    Here is SPC UCA and Wrangler AT 275/70/18 on TRD Off Road rim and no wheel spacers.
    Eibach lift 2nd clip, Coachbuilder shims (2 Driver, 1 Passenger) Toytec Shackles on 1.5" Setting.
    Next posts are photos with Roadian 295/70/18. No change in mpg. Rides softer than the 275, but is also a little more squirrely on the road. Cold PSI front 42, Cold PSI Rear 34.

    Does anyone know why my tires still look too small? Is it the factory offset of the wheel, or did I lift my truck too much?

    The Nexen is more of an all season AT, VS a more aggressive AT with knobbier tread and aggressive sidewall. The Nexen May also not measure out as big as some other 295/70/18s do.

    I think it's the design and contrast of the wheels along with tire tread ass well doesn't give it that "aggressive stance".

    Because they are small?

    Like already stated, they just aren't an aggressive tire. Throw some 295/70/18 or 285/75/18 Ridge Grapplers or mud terrains on there. It'll look much better. If looks are what you're after?
