Default A new set of Rims

I plan on buying a set of rims for my JK. What is the correct back spacing that I need to avoid the brake caliper.

I run a 15" with 35/12.50 not sure the back spacing but the guy I bought it from has a 1/4" spacer to clear the brakes. Ill see if I can get a measurement for you.
