Default Rear Control Arm

So I am wondering if I am crazy or will be ok?

I have an 3.5 Rock Krawler X-Factor lift on my JK. I am getting new tires but want to keep my factory rims because I actually like the look of them. I was at the big tire store today trying to find a 35" tire that will fit on the rim and fit on the Jeep with the upgraded control arms. We managed to fit a 315/70/18 on the factory rims and it mounted on the Jeep. Only issue is the clearance between the tire and the upper control arm. Looks like i am going to have about 1/2" of clearance. You can see the space in the picture that is attached. I already have 1.5" spacer on the Jeep to make the rims work with the factory tires. The jeep will be 90% street driven with only some trails on the weekend.




Do you all think i will be OK with this setup?

Thanks in advance
Matthew
