Guys, careful with those rims... I put my winters on last WE, but tried to keep my 1.25" spacers 
the factory wheels have cavities between the holes so the head of the bolts holding the spacer do not interfere... but not the winter rims I have (Jeep steel 16")... so I ended up scrapping all studs on the spacers. 
From the picture, those don't have cavities either...
Fortunately, although the factory nuts round head were crunched, they were not otherwise damaged, and the factory studs were not damaged either, so I could put the wheels on without the spacer.
Need new spacers (or at least 20 lugs and nuts) to put back the 35" on next spring

I sold the tires/rims to GTIBOY05 from Montreal. I know that he has wheel spacers on his Sahara. You should PM your post to him. He speaks French.
