Upgrading the tires with a lift/ ANY HELP?
hey guys,
I've got a 2010 jeep wrangler unlimited i'm planing on upgrading to 35x12.5 inch tire and of course new wheels. I was curious whats the minimum A: lift and B: backspacing for the wheels so i dont rub anywhere. Im curious about the minimum just to have a starting point of reference. I've heard that as far as backspace goes 4" is the most to prevent rubbing, and for the lift Ive heard 2.5".
ANY HELP?

I recently did a 2.5" with black 15x8 procomp steelies, 3.75" backspacing and 33x12.50-15 goodyear duratracs. Why would you want 35's on a 2.5" lift? do you off road a lot? I get awesome flex with my setup. I love it and would never go back. I can only move forward from here.
