Default Biggest Tire on stock 7.5 wheel?

I.m going with a BB from Taratrax and was wondering if I can run a 35x12.50 tire on my stock 7.5 Rubie wheels? If so will I need a spacer? If so what size 1.25? Thanks for any input, this is my first Jeep, Love it!! Can't wait for the mods

haha don't you love the fact we just need 2.5 BB to run 35's...gotta love the JK's. I have the SpyderTrax 1.5" spacers, best out there and plan on 35x12.50's on the stock Rubis for now too.

Thanks for the info. As far as the spacers go, do I need a 5x4.5 or 5x5 spacer? Sorry for the newbe ?'s

Thanks Again.

I have the SpiderTrax 1.5" spacers... they are 5X5. I would buy those over the ebay ones...but some may argue. But I like the reputation that SpiderTrax has, especially on this board!
