Factory TJ bolt pattern is 5 lug on a 4.5" circle. Factory rim Backspacing is 5.5" to run 35x12.50's you need to reduce your B.S. to at least 4.5" to prevent the tires from rubbing on the spring buckets during max upward wheel travel.This would make your wheels stick out one inch farther.I would try to find a wheel with 4 to 4.5" B.S.. The more you reduce it the greater your load on your axles and bearings. [addsig]
