backspacing

The current Jeep: • Stock 2006 Rubicon (automatic) with 31x10.5r16 tires • 95% on the road (daily driver, but we also go on a lot of long trips throughout the states) • 5% off-roading in mild to medium terrain, mostly to find cool views and camping spots (not looking to do extreme rock crawling...

What is the proper backspacing for a 285/75r16 tire on a 2005 Rubicon? I am running the factory Moab wheels but I'm not sure with these size tires if it would be wise to go to a different 16" wheel with better backspacing?
