Default Rough Country 4" X-Flex Lift and 35 in tires

I have a 4dr Sahara Unlimited and I'm about to install a Rough Country 4" X-Flex lift kit, I'm also wanting to put 35's with 15x10 rims on it. What measurements as far as backspacing and offset would I need for the rims to make it work without rubbing in any way??

I would get a 8 inch rim if u plan on wheeling or a 9 inch wheel if u dont. 10 inches is kind of wide. I will let someone else talk about BS on 15 inch rim but i think u want around 3.75 inches of BS for it to fit.

I had a jeep guy at 4 wheel parts tell me you don't want to run a 10 inch wheel on stock JK axles. Don't know his reasoning, but I listened and bought 8 inch steroids.
