Default ram wheel backspacing

Ok im looking at some new wheels but idk what i should do for backspacing. My tires rub on the control arms as of now and im going to be putting 35x12.5 on so what would be a good backspacing for lets say a Rim Width of 9.75 in. any pointers would be great

Thanks Dan

only 3 inches of lift. stick with 33s. the 35s will almost always rub at full wheel turn. at least this is what i have discovered from others.

oh, didnt realize that. then you will be fine with the normal 4.5 inch backspace if you want to run 35s.
