SVC UCAs and Wheel Spec Question

[RaptizedBK]

Hi All, I searched around a bit before posting this but hoping to get some real world experience with the setup I am looking at running.

I currently have 17x9.5" aftermarket wheels with a 12mm offset and 35x12.50 Ridgegrapplers on my '18 Raptor. I am upgrading to Fox 3.0s and got the SVC UCA to go with it but realizing now I may have fitment issues with the wheels (SVC recommends a 0 offset).

Hoping someone more knowledgeable than me with wheel fitment chime in on whether this setup would work? Or will I need spacers/new wheels?

I believe @svc recommends a +00 offset with an 8.5" wheel which equates to 4.75" backspace. Backspace is the key measurement with UCA's. The Arsenal's have a 5.5" backspace which could lead to inner clearance issues. Might be able to get away with a spacer but I wouldn't recommend

Thanks for the reply! That is what I was thinking. Also, just went down to check the truck as it sits and I currently only have maybe 1.25" of clearance between outermost UCA to sidewall. So it would be a very tight squeeze with the SVC UCAs. Might bite the bullet and just get the 0mm offset wheels. Lesson learned.

Haha! Just saw this. Ended up getting some 0 offset wheels to go on and run the setup.
