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.

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.
