GEN 2 UCAs -- are they worth it for me?

What else are you selling?

King 3.0s

I prefer the Icon UCAs too, however my wheels have too much backspacing for proper fitment. On the positive side, with the other UCAs, it appears you only have to dial-in the camber/caster once, then it's locked down for life.

What backspacing are your wheels? Icon said 5" was the most that could be used but I just had a customer use 5.5" backspace with a chunky Nitto MT 37x12.50R17 and there is still room. It wouldn't shock me if a 5.75" backspace still cleared with a more mild sidewall.

My wheels are 5.75” with 35” x 12.50 KM2 tires. Interesting to know, thanks. Icon says 5” on the website, but no harm in double checking.

I think there is a 1/4" worth of room there. (this is the guy with 5.5" backspace with 37x12.50R17 Nitto MT's)

Could be ok. But I could see those potentially rubbing when aired down and/or turning hard.

Similarly, I’d like to know if it has been tested through the full suspension cycle.

Enough to mash the 37's into the liners but not aired down like previously mentioned.

Seems like there is a lot of different information regarding the backspace requirements. I called icon today and I was told that the 5" backspace requirement applies if you were running wider/larger tires. Apparently they will work with OEM wheels and tires.
