Tire Rim Questions - Help

[Bloody Marty]

Ordering a new 2 door Willys Sport '21.
It will be getting the Mopar 2" lift installed.
I have landed on 35" mud tires (brand up in the air for now) but want a certain stance & look. I do not want 20" rims, I like the look of a 17" or 18" (max).
I do want them to hang out some but not obnoxiously, just a good firm aggressive look. No spacers.
Question is what offset / size (deeper dish look) to use for this appearance with what I've described? I really like the look of the American Racing AR201 cast iron black wheels but the local tire-rim guy says they can't be had & is pushing the 20"er idea......not for me. I'm aware that 17" wheels are limited.
I've owned a jeep several yrs back but with no mods so this is kinda new to me.
If I'm not giving enough info, let me know.
Help with suggestions & ideas?
Thanks in advance!!

Actually 17s are the most common, much more options for a 17 so You're in luck! I'd look for something in a 17x8.5 with offset -6 thru -12, this will allow for your lift and wider tires to keep from contact issues when flexing the suspension. You can go up to a -18 depending how much poke you're after, and the non-rubicons have axles that are 1.5" narrower so going out a bit more isn't too much of a concern. I wouldn't go past that -18 though.
