15x8 Rims 4" backspace
I did some searches and it looks my stock Country alloy wheels are 15x7" wide and have 5.5" back space? Is that correct? If so will these wheels fit my stock XJ with 235/75 R15 tires? 15x8" with 4" backspace. Will the tires stick out past the wheel flares? Thanks.

It is difficult to parse exactly what question is being asked.
15x8" with 4" backspace
Yes. These will fit 235/75r15
Yes. These will stick out a little more than stock (about 1.25" inches more)
If they do stick out, even by 1.25", you may not like the look. My friend accidentally got wheels with too little backspacing, and they stuck out a little, and it was noticeable, and really bothered him.
They can also put a little more strain on your hubs, causing premature wear/failure.
