Default -12 offset?

I have a 04 4x4 leveled 2.5 inches with 35x12.5 r17 procomps mounted on the stock wheels. I currently rub on the upper control arm when i turn all the way to the left or right. i want to fix this problem with new wheels. most of the wheels im finding that i like have a -12 offset and i was wondering if they would stick out too far and then maybe rub on my bumber or somewhere else around my fender?

If you stick 35's out at all they will rub whell well and front bumper, rubbing on the control arm is pretty much the cost of running 35's on only a leveling kit. Youre going to rub one or the other.

I had to run a wheel 8 inches wide with a 5 1/2" backspace to run those size tires and not get any rubbing. Only problem this size aftermarket wheel is hard to find.

This is how they looked in the front. No rubbing either!
