If your rear suspension is still good & not wore out our, ur leafs are not flat their OK. My xj 12 yrs old so I just replaced the whole thing.. every jeep is different. Imo.

Those rims will work! Stock bs is like 5 inches. What RC should say is a minimum of 4 inches. What your doing is moving the tire away from the hub so that it don't rub on suspension

I have the RC 4.5" lift, 15X8's 4" backspacing on 33X12.5's trimmed. no rubbing at all wheel lock to wheel lock. you'll have more room then me.

You have less back spacing! Yes your tires will stick out further but you will still have more room behind the rim. I explained the whole thing up above
