Default Wheels and tires

i honestly have no clue when it comes to ordering the right wheel, so i was wondering if someone could help me out, http://www.procomptires.com/truck-je...98-wheels.aspx i would like to get that wheel, and i want a tire width of at least 10inches, and a 35, i mean i just dont know what the right specification are used for this. so if someone could just tell me which wheel on there can be fit a 10in wide or 12 in wide tire that would be great and if it will work on my jeep.

Your best bet the
17x8 with the 5 on 5 bolt pattern with the 4.5 BS. 17" tires are cheaper and better selection of tires than +18" size tires.

You will be able to fit upto a 12.50 wide tire with this rim. This is the same size rim I am running my 33x12.50 Cooper STT's on and have had no issues. The BS of 4.5" will have a 12.50 wide tire stick out about 1/2-3/4" outside your stock fender flares.

I would imagine you have a lift or trimmed your stock fenders on your JK if you are looking at 35's. Also, I would highly recommend you get yourself a rear bumper with tire carrier sooner rather than later to take the weight off the rear gate.
