JPOR: backspacing?

[Obi-Wan <bvh@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Quick question:  what wheel backspacing works well running 35x12.50R15
SSR's on 15x8 rims and stock YJ axles (assuming enough lift, of course)?
Obviously the stock backspacing of 5" (or so) is too much & will rub
like crazy.  Even my 33x9.50's rub the springs with stock rims.  Is 3.5"
good?  More?  Less?

Yes, I know, I'm trying to talk this guy into an axle swap along with
his 35's, but let's just worry about the backspacing for now.
