Default some tire and wheel questions

so i wanna put 35s on my jeep. i already have the 3" spacer lift on it. i plan on using the stock 17" rim on the tire unless i find some tires that come with rims.
would a 35 inch tire with a 18inch rim still fit? and is the jk a 5x5 lug pattern or a 5x5 1/2?
would all of this fit and does all of this make sense?

They will fit just fine you will have to buy wheel spacers tho probably 1.5" spacers to keep them from rubbing.

I'm pretty sure if you're running stock rims, you'll need spacers
