Default Will 4.75bs rub?

Hey guys, really need some advice. I'm putting on a teraflex 2.5 on my 12 jku Sahara. Plan on running a 35x12.5x17. I know the ideal backspacing is 4.5. I really like a wheel with 4.75bs. Anyone with experience know if this will rub at all?? Thanks!!

X2...From experience I can tell you they will rub on the swaybar..My tires are just a bit wider and do.

I am already planning on doing this one of these weekends
