Dry rub?
Temp and time? I'm on a webber.

If you give 10 people a bag of gold, someone will complain about how heavy it is!
Low and slow (250 degrees 2-3 hours or until they will break away). Indirect heat. Dry rub of your choice (pretty much what you think tastes good and you have in the cabinet). Sauce last 10 -15 minutes if you want too.

2-2-1 method for baby backs or 3-2-1 for spare ribs.
If you're using the kettle (not the WSM), then here's a good link: KETTLE RIBS
This site has a plethora of info on Cooking/Smoking on a Weber. It started more based on the WSM (Weber Smokey Mountain Smoker), but has evolved into all things Weber. Here's the main site: VWBB
I know there are much better chiefs on here than me, but heres how I do them.
I have my own dry rub now, but if you dont any store will have a good rub. I like Mccormicks pork rub or there sweet and tangy dry rub.
Important: make sure you take a pair of pliers and pull the inside film off. it is worth it.
Then I cover and rub them in a dry rub. Next i wrap them in tin foil and cook for 2.5 hours at 250 degrees on the grill. That tin foil keeps the jucie in and they boil in the juice. Next I take them out the tin foil place directly on grill and cover with favorite BBQ sauce and brown them up 10 minutes or so.

Make sure to pull the connective membrane off the underside of the ribs.....pro tip.
dry rub.sauce on the side fer dipping.
We gave you Corn,you gave us clap,bad trade.
only thing else I would suggest is coat in yellow mustard both sides before applying rub, after you strip the membrane off. The taste of mustard burns off but it will help break down the meat and holds the rub on better. I use this for butts also. use the paper towel/butter knife trick removing the membrane on the underside of the ribs as already indicated.
Do not sauce them until you are just about ready to eat.
Another tactic (before sauce) is after you pull them off the cooker wrap them in tin foil and set in a cooler, wrap the meat in foil with towels for about 20 minutes. Thank me later on this.

Lowcountry speaks the truth. I just put 3 racks of baby backs on at 225 and am going to roll with a 2-1.5-1 method to keep them from drying out. I like to add a little bit of apple cider when I wrap them to help tenderize them.
I have a mustard/vinegar sauce that I made that's pretty low on sugar, and I like to really sauce them up for every hour or since it's pretty hard to burn.
