Default Any other 15'' rims than Cragar soft 8s?

Has anybody tried other rims other than Cragar's for 15s? I was thinking of buying some 15x8s ProComp 1079 polished with the simulated beadlock but I don't know if they'll fit on the new JK. Also, what is the ideal backspacing you can have on aftermarket JK rims to cover 33x12.5x15 MTs? Can anybody help me out?

Thanks

I might be wrong but I dont think 15" wheel will work on a JK. What I was told the brakes will rub. Thats why JK's come with 16" or 17" wheels.

Some 15" wheels will work, others may not.

Crager soft 8's in 15" will work with a JK.
