15s on a jk

Looking to put a lift and 35s on soon. What 15 inch wheels and backspacing are being used to fit them on a JK?

You want a rim with 4.5 in back spacing or less. Mine are 3.75" and fit perfect. PM Discount Tire or call them, they know what fits. Look in the vendors area of the forum for thr 15" MB72 wheels thread.

I'm gonna go this route as well. Last lifted vehicle I owned was my YJ 10 years ago and 15's were the way to go. Makes sense or tire and wheel cost.

Except I'm having trouble in Canada finding a desirable tire at a fair price. BFG at/ko and GY duratracs are both back ordered HUGE.
