Default 15" Alloy Wheels on an 08 Rubicon?

I have done a ton of research on 15" wheels and have seen that some work some don't. I was hoping that in my particular sitation I could get some help since I couldn't seem to find a definitive answer. Is anyone with an 08 Rubicon running 15" alloy wheels without rubbing the calipers? If so, what wheels? And I understand that steel have a better chance of fitting since it's not as thick so if you're running 15" steel with no issues please list those.

Also, does the width of the wheel make a difference? Say a 15x8 compared to 15x10?

Thanks for the help!

I have an 08 Rubicon with 15x10 Ion 138 series wheels that have 4" of backspacing. Cheap attractive wheel with no rubbing and no clearance issues.
