Which wheel size looks best on 4.5 lift
I have a 98 xj and I'm trying to decide which wheel size looks better. 15x8 or 15x10 with 3.75 back spacing or 15x8 with 4.5 back spacing? Pics will help! Thanks!

What tire size? I prefer 15x8's for up to a 13.5" wide tire, I'd only go to a 10" wheel for 14"+ wide tires.
And I have 3.75" backspacing on my 15x8's, I wouldn't want any more backspacing. It looks like if I had 4.5" backspacing my tires would rub on the control arms.

Bumping this thread for my question vs. creating a new one as it's sort of similar to mine.
I plan on running a 285/70/17 which = 32.71" x 11.22" x 17" for sizing reference on my XJ. I am running Short Arms, Stock Flares, with 4.5" of Suspension lift. I am fine with moderate wheel poke as I might end up adding the Flat Flares from Bushwhacker if I get any rub action.
What would be the ideal Wheel size "Rim" to order be for my application? I already have the tires.
Appreciate any feedback
