Default Putting 35's on my Ram. Few questions

I have a 2009 Ram with a 2.5in leveling kit and am going to be buying some 35x12.5r20 tires to replace the worn 33's and am wondering how big of a wheel spacer I am going to need to fit them with the stock wheels for now. I have the 20x8 stock wheels on it now. I have herd 1/4 inch will work but I want to be sure! Also I am going to be buying some rims for it this summer and was wondering what sort of backspacing and offset I should get. Thanks all!

I have 35" Nitto Terra Grapplers on my stock 20" rims with a 4" lift. I run 1/4 spacers all around, but still have some slight rubbing on occasion - tight corner or off road. You'll be fine with a 1/4, but I'd consider a 1/2 to get a little extra room. I may actually do that with my next set of tires.

I ended up getting Mastercraft Courser Mxt's 35x12.5x20 with 1/4" spacers. They look great! Huge improvement from the bald 33's lol No rub even at full lock which blew my mind. Currently sitting on about 5 feet of snow so I won't be able to do much off roading to see if there is any rubbing for a while haha
