35's on stock rims?

I am going with BFG Mud Terrains, 35x12.5 17. Does anyone know if there's a problem keeping my stock rims? Are they wide enough? Rather not spend money I don't have to. I am aware that I'll need the Spidertrax 1.5" spacers. Thanks.

I've had no problems and I don't expect any.

What is the problem with the spare? (And what's the solution?)

Offset on Stock rims is to much to mount on the standard spare carrier... I just posted about the Best Top High rock carrier... a second ago actually... It'll hold it.

Depending on exactly which tire you put on, and your level of persistence, you CAN fit a 315/70-17 (34.5") spare on the rear without modifications. I have done it as have some others. You may need to trim the stock tailgate spacers.
