Another wheel and tire question...

I know, I know but about to spend some big money and want to hear from the experts. I'm looking at 17x9 wheels with 5" of backspacing and 0 offset and 315/70 r17 tires. I'll be putting on the jspec 2.5 kit. Will this cause rubbing issues? This will be a light trail use jeep and will never see full flex or rock crawling. I'm okay with changing the lift if needed. Thanks for any help!

I think you will be good to go. With a 2.5" BB and 4.75 backspacing I had zero rub. I also had aftermarket bumpers, not sure about the stock
 
Factory fenders. I'm not too worried about the fenders. I've had 35s on a 2.5" lift before. My main concern is that the wheels will cause issues with 5" of backspacing instead of the recommended 4.5"...
