I imagine Simex will spec an 8" rim for these. To avoid rubbing probably need 3.75 to 4" backspacing as well. That sort of back spacing is what most people with 12.5" wide tyres run and Simex are pretty wide with the lugs.
35s generally need about 4.5" of combined coil/body lift on a TJ unless you do a high hood / virtual lift.
I ran Simex ET 32x9.5s (pretty much a 33) and also 33 BFG ATs with just a 3" coil lift. Both on 7" rims with 3.75" backspacing.
Not sure if any regular Jeepers on OL are running Simex. Ausjeepoffroad would be a good place to ask.
