Default Stock Rims fitment question

OK, I'm putting on new wheels (17x9) wiith 35's - Duratracks. The stock wheels are 18 x 6.5 - I think, w Bridgestone AT tires.

I'm thinking that the stock wheels - after I wear out/replace the orginal Bridgestone tires, could be fitted with good highway / quiet tire - maybe Michiline other quality highway tire, as a summer, highway runner.

What is the largest, or best size to fit on the stock Sahara wheels? For the highway, summer use if not going off road?

I have a OME lift that put the Jeep up about 4"

Open the FAQ's and look in the Tires & Wheels area. It will give you some info on Backspacing and tire widths and sizes vs lift heights.
