I don't think the tire sizes you're looking at are in range for 12" wide rims.

Yes, I know some folks go wider than that anyway. But you were asking for opinions.

I'd go with the narrower ones - 10" wide rims is still quite wide for Wrangler. Most folks tend to go with an 8.5 or 9" wide wheel.

Go with an 8" wide wheel and a 10.5" tire. If you can't find a 10.5" wide tire in the height you want, go with an 8" wide wheel and a 10.5" tire.

A 12” wide wheel with -44 offset is ridiculous. Are you planning on going with 40” tires on 1 ton/ 8 lug axles?

12" wide wheels are way too wide for a 12.5" wide tire. I wouldn't go wider than 10". I tend to go as narrow as I can. My 12.5" wide tires are on 8.5" wide wheels since that's the minimum width rated for the tires.

I know to many this is unpopular, but i want to run 22x10 or 22x12...
-25 or -44...

Want 20 or 22" wheels, 35 or 37" tires,
2021 sahara diesel, oem Dana 44's, hd oem automatic, already upgraded everything underneath...yeti front and rear track bars, tie rod assembly,draglink, dynatrac ball joints, sector shaft brace, mopar diesel specific lift (raised over 3") fox shocks, rock krawler spring perch's, etc.
Want aggressive stance, only hit light trails, beach,and job sites. I know most of you hardcore guys run 17s but im not into that at all. Looking for any advice on clearance and how far a 22x12 -44 with 37x13.5 would stick past stock fenders.
If anyone here has first hand experience, would be much appreciated!

how far a 22x12 -44 with 37x13.5 would stick past stock fenders.

I can help you calculate it.

Factory rims have a 6 1/8" backspacing, +44mm offset, and a 7 1/2" width.

Using a calculator like this one:

For a 12" width and -44mm offset,

The result is that the outer edge of the wheel pokes out 146mm or 5 3/4 inches, beyond stock. That's quite a bit.

Your tires have a recommended rim width. My 35 x 12: 50 x 17, GY Durtrac's recommended a 9.5 in rim width and that was when I went with.

I would BET $$ 12 is way to wide.

Assuming you’re running a 12.5 tire the 10” wide -19 offset will sit approximately 3.75” outside the fender.
the 12” -44 offset will sit approximately 5.75” outside the fender.
