BFG AT LT265/65/R18 rubbing UCAs - advice requested

Hey all, I recently installed BFG AT's in LT265/65/R18. The stock size on my '07 LTD 4WD V8 is P265/60/R18.

I've got an OME lift and these BFGs are rubbing the UCAs!! I never expected this with such a conservative tire swap.

It looks like the UCA does not rub at all when the 4Runner is stopped, so I cannot exactly see what is going on. Most likely, there's a little rub at speed when the suspension moves up & down.

How serious is this? I have to go on a roadtrip Tuesday AM, so I will not have time to get Spidertrax Spacers FedExed.

Any Ideas? Many thanks for all replies.

it'll wear the paint off and make a rubbing noise, but i dont see any sharp edges that could catch and cut the tire. Get the spacers asap!
