    Anyone know if this setup will need a BMC? Or would the perfect alignment and caster settings be good enough?
    Setup plan:
    5100 all around with OME springs
    SPC UCA
    285s Falken Wildpeak AT3W
    RRW wheels with -12 offset and 4.28 Back space.

    I’m going to say yes you’ll need a BMC. Wider tires and negative offset equal a BMC.

    You can always try to make everything work before you do the BMC.

    You'll want to push your caster up as far as you can. Doing such, you'll need to do the fender liner mod which includes a little fender flare trimming.

    You may not need a BMC driving around town, but with 285's you can pretty much guarantee any flex will require a BMC. Unless you like your mobile rumble strip haha
