Default 35's on Rubicon OE wheels

Does anyone know if 35x12.5 tires will fit on stock rubicon wheels? I am going to be lifting my jeep very soon and plan on putting 35's on. I was looking at the money I would save by using the stock wheels that I have already blacked out and maybe put the money I saved towards regearing. Also, if they do fit will I need a spacer and how big of one?

I run my 35" BFG KM2's on stockers and wouldn't have it any other way.
The pic is on a 3.25" lift with 1.5" wheel spacers.

My only complaint is a stock wheel is not dished deep enough to avoid
"trail" rash. Rocks, Stumps, whatever... I've rubbed them all.

Thanks everyone. I'm not sure how I missed that whole thread of stock wheels and 35's. I appreciate you not beating me down for being a dumb a$$.
