Default 35 x12.50 tires on stock rims

I have a 2011 JKU with 3.5 inch lift. I have stock 17 inch Moab rims and Spidertrax spacers. Is there any issues with putting 35's on these wheels. I know the rim is only 7.5 isn't the tire too big? Any rub issues or anything. I see a lot of jeeps
running these tires on the stock wheels.

What were the size of those matchbox tires in the before pic? LOL, they are cute, LOL. I have 33's on mine but want to go to 35's, reading up things needed to make that happen.
