Retro Wagon Wheels BFG KO2's on Overland

[Whaler]

I am hoping to replace the stock Overland rims with the retro Wagon Wheels (https://www.quadratec.com/p/quadratec/cj-retro-alloy-wheel-wrangler-jk-jl/white) and adding BFG KO2's (either LT285/70R17/C (11.5" width) or 34x10.50R17/D).

I have done much research and have some questions regarding fit. The offset will go from stock +44mm to +11mm. I used the tiresize.com offset calculator which shows the outside of the 285/70R17 being 1.9" further out than stock. Are there other factors such as backspacing that may not be captured and could impact this calculation? (The Wagon Wheel backspace is 5.2.) Will this setup result in the tires being outside the stock fenders?

I am hoping there is someone who has a similar setup that may be able to post pictures and provide there thoughts.

I’m using Quadratec wheels with the same specs. They move the tire out 1.3” (33mm). Here is how they sit on a Rubicon, with 12.50 Nittos. I think they are perfect for a moderate setup.

Related topic, I like the wheels. Are you going with white? I wonder how white wheels hold up with the brake dust.
