normally, a box mounts 1/2″ out for drywall. how far do i mount out for drywall + subway tile on a kitchen backsplash?
You mount the box to accomodate the drywall plus the thickness of the tile.
They make boxes with a screw that you can move them in and out. Designed specifically for this purpose.
Look for them at Lowes and HD. They are blue Carlon box.
