I'm planning to replace the stock 18" wheels with 17" and Goodyear MT/R 35" on my '08 JK. If I install a 3" lift how much of a negative offset should the new wheels have to avoid any contact?
Also, is there a good place to shop for wheels with negative offsets? Most of my searches end up with zero offset.

Forget "offset", what you are interested in is "back spacing". And anything less than 4.5" back spacing is what you need. I have 4.25" on mine

Yep.... I gotta look up the thread about how to determine how much backspacing my wheels have. The Poly kit calls for a min of 4.5 and I think mine is a 4.
