I run the Goodyear Duratrac (315/70/17) on stock Rubi wheels with a 1.25" backspace. I had the 1.5", but sold them for the 1.25" (Teraflex) spacer. That spacer with the stock wheel gets me very close to the backspace of the Pintler wheel from AEV. Really happy with the overall performance of the Duratrac on and off-road - and they are quite.

In an automatic it is almost mandatory because your shift points are calculated by wheel speed

I'm running the cooper stts in a 315/75/17, for mud tires they are very quiet on the road. I haven't done anything crazy but they seem to latch on everything I've tried them on. Love the look of them too, very aggressive, running them at 30 lbs. granted it is my first set of 35s so I'm not very versed. But so far I would probably go with them again when it's time to swap them.

Your a little of on your figures.
Stock Wheel Backspace = 6.25
AEV Wheel Backspace = 5.20
I happened to want to get the same look as the AEV wheel under the flares, so I got rid of the 1.5 spacer in favor of the 1.25. It matches up fairly well to the AEV Pintler Wheel backspace with using your stock wheel.
First photo is my Jeep, second is an AEV Jeep.

That was my original figure, sorry. I also forgot the AEV were 8.5 instead of 9.
