Can anyone tell me what the offset is on a stock Rubicon wheel? How much will a negitive offset of 12mm bring the tire out?
Thanks

The stock Rubi wheels have 5" of backspace. I had to get the Spidertrax wheel spacers so I could put the 35' MTRs on the them. (I wouldn't recommend ANYBODY using spacers if at all possible)

I concur, purchase new wheels with the correct back space rather than use spacers. These just add one more link in the chain of things that can become loose or break. The amount of tire that will protrude past the fender flare depends on more than just the wheel back space. Tire & wheel width are factors as well.
Hey, Medic you must have done some massive fender trimming to fit those tires, 35 ft? :D so I could put the 35' MTRs on

So if a wheel has 4.03 inch of backspace the tire will stickout about an inch further than with a 5 inch backspace wheel? Thanks fo da help:o
