Thinking about going up w tire size from 285/75/17 to skinny 35's. I had to install 1.5" spacers to clear Apez discos( awesome!) what offset should new wheels be to ensure no rubbing. Sport S has narrow track axles compared to Rubicon / Mohave /max tow versions. would prefer to eliminate spacers and keep poke to minimum. thanks for your reply in advance!

I'm running a 18" Fuel Rebel 5 wheel with a -12 offset. 2" Mopar lift and 37s. No rub at all, but mine's strictly a daily driver

free to roam, does the overland have wide track axles? are your rubi takeoffs 33's?
Not jeep beer sleep , what size tires are you running?

You're missing a key piece of info. Offset without knowing the wheel width is misleading at best. According to the Apex website you need at least 4.75" backspacing but they prefer 4.5" with the narrow axles. In order to achieve 4.5" backspacing on an 8.5" wide wheel that is -6 offset but its -12 on a 9" wide wheel and so on. Until people tell you their wheel width all the offset numbers you've been given aren't really helping you. Hope this helps.
I'm in a similar boat as you except I haven't bought the autolynx yet. I'm looking at buying those, wheels and tires all in one fell swoop so I'm interested in what people are actually getting away with clearance wise with the autolynx. Apex hasn't responded to my question via email yet so maybe the forum can supply some insight.
