Need feedback on my tire/wheel setup

[18RubiJLU]

Hi everyone,
I have a JLUR on order and am considering this setup to upgrade.
Goodyear Duratec 35x12.5xR18 D rated
Fuel Stroke wheel 18x9, -1 offset and 5 BS

This setup should not have any rubbing inside right? confirm please..

Also, this tire and wheel combo is 100 lbs total, do I need reinforcement for the spare?

thanks.

For the record, I did order steel bumper and looks like 35 tires don't fit well over those.

I have a JLUS and the 35 Grappler wont clear the bumper. If you run a +1 (5 bs) the rear view camera will not stick thru the wheel far enough. Thus you get an obstruction in the camera view. A -12 (4.5 bs) allows the camera to stick thru and you get a partially obstructed view but it's still useable.

Same wheel, first is 4.5 bs and second is 5 bs.

Dewey,
I updated the op as well, it's not +1 but -1 offset. I did confirm with another forum member who is running these wheels (-1, 5 BS) that camera works just fine. There are top and bottom part of view edged out but is usable.
Could you point to to more pictures of the second one with 5BS? thanks!

Any inputs on the reinforcement kit? Owners Manual says 85 lbs is the limit for stock kit including the spare tire so I guess it will be safer to do the reinforcement kit.
RC relocation plate as well I guess based on some other threads??
