Seen a set of 255/75/17 jeep rubicon rims and tires for sale. Planning on lifting my jeep eventually... These are $300 for 5 rims and all terrain tires. I like the 16' better for size, but what is the overall size and back spacing difference between the two?

Forget the 17s, won't work, they are a 5on 5 bolt pattern . Yes you can find them cheap everywhere since there is not much of a market for them.
Next ....the tires are 32s and would require a 4 inch lift and also a regear to run them, so neither the tires or wheels are that good of a deal

Different bolt pattern on the 17in wheel. You'd need an adapter/spacer to fit the wheel.
