Default Icon Upper Control Arms

I believe the answer to my question is yes from searching but I wanted to be sure first before I order.

Do the icon upper control arms work fine with the factory 20" rims?

I am installing my icon 2.5 front coilovers now and had an issue with my passenger side upper control arm ball joint(threads don't feel good hand doing the nut up, I get 3-4 spins long before the nyloc portion engages and its jammed up tight. So I might as well replace the upper arms if I need to do a new ball joint.

I have some 18" winter rims Ultra Crushers
Size:18x8.5
Offset:25mm
Backspacing:5.71"
Bolt Pattern:6-135

Anyone know if those will work as well?

Thanks in advance. Sucks I need to find arms fast now as I have the front end apart and its a holiday in Canada tomorrow

Thanks so just a little tire to control arm contact at full lock left or right? Nothing you are worried about correct?

Yup, correct. Everyday driving down the road wont be a problem at all. Plenty of clearance

Thanks very much, so they sound like a good upgrade.

No sense in putting stock parts back on once they go
