I have some bent rims on my bone stock 2001 XJ.I am thinking of replacing with 15x7 with 4" on backspacing on 235/75/15 (biggest tire that will normfit stock). Will this rub with the decreased backspacing?

Nope, you'll be fine.

Thanks. And the 4" backspace isn't enough to cause premature steering/suspension wear is it? I can't seem to find replacement rims 5.25" backspacing and I don't want to buy someone's old stock rims. Had bad luck with that in the past

The 4" BS is fine
