I actually like the wheel and tire set up but it would be nice to offer + offset but I'm little picky. I'm definatly getting mopar lift.

Just put these on this past Tuesday. 315/70R17 (almost 35s). Black Rhino Armory wheels. 9.5 in wheel, -18offset. I did put on the tailgate reinforcement as well because there's a perfect spot for a CB antenna.

With the -18 offset any issues/concerns with scrub radius or suspension issues?

I ran that setup for about 6,000 miles before I installed a lift. Not one single issue with rubbing or suspension. I took it on trails in Colorado above 10,000 feet and towed a trailer for 2,000+ miles.

If you were going to use stock wheels but wanted to recreate the wider stance that theses -18 and -12 offsets have, what type/size of spacer would you need?

Three questions:

1) Has no one tried the 315/70R17’s on a stock Sahara or Sport (no lift)? I know it won’t flex well, but I’m still curious to see what it looks like.

2) For those of you using stock rims, Rubicon or otherwise, what goes into the decision to use a spacer? I understand to run a 315/70 for example you don’t need them, but as you go bigger does it become necessary if your not running with a lift?

3) Finally, what size spacer with a stock Rubicon or Sahara rum would you have to use to get the -18 or -12 offset many of these aftermarket rims have?

35x12.5x17 Nitto Trail Grapplers on KMC beadlocks. no lift and no spacers,I mounted the tire to the spare tire mount and it felt like it was to weak to hold the tire plus the problems with the reverse cam.
