I still get a little confused with backspacing and for tires and wheels whether or not they are compatible so what I am going to do is list what I am planning on getting and let me know if they are compatible and what back spacing I will need. Also with the front bumper is there going to be anything needed to change with the rake? THANKS

I have a STOCK 08' SAHARA btw

 

The Crager wheels won't fit the lug pattern on your jeep. You need something that is 5 on 5. 15" rims may more may not fit. search this forum and you'll get mixed opinions and results. 4 inch backspacing might be getting a bit far out there for smaller tires, might look kinda off.

32 inch tires are fine, but might look a bit small with a 2.5" lift

teraflex seem to be well regarded around here, and for the price, I hear you can't beat the BB

Bumper should be fine, but you might want to consider adding larger spacers, or coils on the front to compansate for the heavier bumper

By the way, this is stuff I have retained in a relativly short period of time, so others may respond with more sound info.

 

I am still working on my first mods on my 08 Sahara too. I got the same lift you are looking at and it is def. worth it. There is a teraflex guy on here who is very informative.

 

I definitly copy and pasted the wrong size tires...32's are not what i want...
35X12.5R15 is what i was looking for. So I need a wheel that is 5 on 5.15" what about width?

 

Yeah, 35X12.5 will fit with a 2.5" budget boost, but you will likely get some rubbing at full flex, if you plan to do some off roading with it.

You still need to address whether a 15 inch wheel is going to rub on the brake caliper. If it does fit, I would say you want a rim width of between 8"-10", but BFG should specify the rim width range on their website.

 

15 inch steel wheel will be fine but i would also consider a 1" body lift ta go with it @ $90.00 to clear the 35s.or just wait save a little more $$$ and do it right the first time, it kinda seems like your either trying to do it on a tight budget or havent done much searching/price comparison.!!!make sure ya shop around a little,you will save a ton of money doing your research so its right the first (well at least third) time!!!!!but if its all the stuff that ya really want go for it and make sure ya post some pics
by the way you want 5on5 with usually around 4 1/2" backspacing!!!!!!!!take some of that bumper money away and get a good quality lift first and formost!!!!!!HEY YA ASKED!!!!!

 

Yeah you are definitly right about doing this with a tight budget. I was thinking about scratching the bumper for now so I could do a better lift and make sure i get the lift/wheels/tires right the first time around. I've done a good bit of research but just confused on the back spacing.

 

From what I have read 4.5" is the ideal backspacing for a wheel on a JK when you are running 33"-37", but you can go anywhere from 4.75" to 3.75" without any major problems in most scenarios.

 

The 15 you're seeing in that post is where he restated the 15" diameter for the wheel.

I know how you feel. Sometimes it's difficult to decipher the posts around here when people don't use proper puncuation, don't use spaces after periods, etc., but if you read it, then look back at the post they're replying to, then read it again, and finally read it again, you'll figure it out... sometimes.
