Default Will this fit without rubbing?

Hey,
So im in the market for new wheels, im trying to track down someone with good knowledge of backspacing, offset and all those fun numbers when installing a new set. Ive looked up trucks with a similar combo and came across this one,but the member who owns the truck hasnt been online in over a year so i cant ask him how it went.




This guy is running 35x12.5x18 nitto trail grapplers with Pro Comp 7005 wheels. I want these wheels on my 2012 FX4 but im swapping out my stock wheels and i already have 295/70/18 trail grapplers ill probably just switch over onto these. Im just making sure before i make this purchase that this installation should go smoothly and i shouldnt come out with any rubbing with this set of pro comps compared to my current stock 18" FX4 wheels.

I have a 2" pro comp level in front and stock in back. Here are the wheel specs:



Part Number: PXA7005-8936
18x9, 6 on 135mm Bolt Pattern
Backspace = 5 in.
Max Load = 2200lbs
Finish = Flat Black
Hub Centric = No
Offset = 0mm

I would really really appreciate anyone help, thanks!

The offset on those wheels will probably require some trimming. More so on the Jesters.
On the bright side, they shouldn't rub the UCA.

Thanks! I learned a bit about how offsetting works. Now i am thinking Fuel Boost 18x9 wheels with a +20 offset. That should make things fir much better right?
