Edit

Also would aftermarket wheels help because i am looking at aftermarket rims and was wondering if the more negative offset the wheel the better to fit???

I have a friend with a 2001 with the bars cranked. He's running 35x12.50s on 16x10 rims and he doesn't rub. Just try to get aftermarket rims with 5" of backspacing. 4.5" backspacing will probably rub the fenders

When I had my 02 I put 315 BFG A/T's and they rubbed pretty bad, yes I had to do some trimming. And that's not but a 34.5" tire and I was leveled...not a true 35. If you want to get aftermarket wheels I would try and stick with the same offset and BS has your factory wheels or has close has you can get.

And NO the more negative offset you get the more there going to rub.

You can fit 35x12.50's by using the OEM wheels but they will rub the frame slightly at full steering lock. I ran 35x12.50's on a 16x10 inch wheel with a 3 inch body lift and the torsion bars cranked up all the way and they barely fit with trimming.
