stock 17" rubicon rim
 
What is the back spacing on stock wheel? I'm trying to figure out what rim back spacing to use with a 35 12.5 r17 wheel.

Welcome to the forum!!! To answer your question, you simply need to do a quick search as this has been hit before. I did it for you: https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=570&highlight=backspace

To make it even easier, it is 6.25"

Here is a thread to read through with drawings. You are probably looking for a 17 x 8 wheel with about 4 1/2" to 5" of backspacing.

People like a little less backspacing to push their tires out to the edge of their flairs or a little past them. Also with a wider tire you need less backspace so the inside doesn't rub also. The thread I posted above shows you how to make a little drawing to help you out.
