Default Wheel spacers with 4.5" back space

Just wondering if anyone out there is running wheel spacers with a aftermarket rim that has a 4.5" backspace. i love the look of a stuck out wheel and enjoy the wide track. what are some opinions on running a set up like this. i have both the rims a spacers just dont know if i should combine them

It's a bitch on the TJ trails, I can tell you that. I mostly crawl up between the trees and plop down.
