Picking up some new wheels for my 2015 JKUR HR(X) with 35"s on a 3 1/2 in Metal Cloak lift. I am just confirming what backspacing before I order online. What backspacing should I be going with to clear everything and not look ridiculous.

 

There are two threads stuck right to the top of this modified area. Both have backspacing information.

4.5" is a common backspace suggestion for a 35x12.50. Assuming the stock rims are 6.25", then that would put the new rims/tires 1.75" further out on each side. (6.25 - 4.5 = ). Not taking width differences into account.

 

thanks... I did a quick search right after I posted that to confirm thoughts of 4.5 to 4.75 backspacing. Just confirming I was on the right track.
