Default 17" KMC XD Enduro fitment question... Picture request?

I was wondering if I'll have any issues with the following set up:

285/70-17's mounted on

KMC XD 122 Enduro 1-Piece Matte Black Alloy Wheel
5x5 Bolt Pattern in 17x9 Size & 4.76" Backspacing

with no lift or suspension mods on my 13' Sahara...

I ordered M/T Classic III'S (5x5 17x9 4.5 back spacing) which I know works, but I'm getting impatient and I'm kind of liking the Enduros.

Any help and/or pictures would be great!

Thanks in advance!
Eddie

the magic BS number for the JK seems to be 4.5" -- not a huge difference with 4.76" -- you shouldn't have any issues since 285/70/17 is essentially a "skinny" 33" at apprx 11.5" wide and will be in the 32" tall range once installed. I run the XD Addict w/ 4.5" BS. Here's a pic of what mine looked like stock w/ 295/70/17s which is basically 33.25" installed and apprx 12" wide:

Thanks for the info guys. I just canceled the M/T Classic order and picked up the 17 x 9 Enduros. Can't wait to get them on the Jeep!

Put pro comp 17x9 with 4.75 back spacing on my JKU with skyjacker 4" lift and it works great. Wouldn't go bigger then 4.75 bs tho.
