+25 offset AEV Pintlers and 285 tires?
Im thinking of getting AEV Pintlers in the +25mm offset and running 285/70/17 (33) or 285/75/17 (34)s with a leveling kit or the OME standard springs (615 and 617) on my 2door. Would I have any problems with this setup? I want to keep my wheels under the flairs as much as possible and dont plan to go wider in the future. I figured as long as I stick with a setup that doesnt require longer rear swaybar links (like the OME standard springs) id be okay. I dont ever plan to do any rock crawling which would require extreme articulation. Thanks in advance for any advice.

As long as you don't go any wider for a tire you will be fine. You would be fine with your stock wheels too. Those pintlers with that offset will stick your tire out an extra 3/4" over stock(offset). However the wheel is one inch wider so you are only gaining 1/4" backspace over stock.
