TeraFlex 3" lift with AEV Pintlers
The descriptions of the TeraFlex 3" lift kits I've seen have said they support 35" tires, but require 4.5" or less backspacing.
The 17" AEV Pintler +10mm non-beadlocks say they have 4.7" backspacing - that's about 5mm "too much."
In the real world does that 2-tenths of an inch matter? Will I need to get wheel spacers? I wanted to avoid random parts like that (especially since they start in 1" increments, which would end up pushing the wheel further out)

The AEV's will work just fine. I only added 1.5 spacers to give mine a wider stance to help out my CG because of a BL lift I installed. And I love the look of it now with the 1.5 wheel spacers. But they are not necessary with AEV wheels and the TF lift.

Awesome thanks guys! Now I just need to figure out what tires to buy and I'll have my next big upgrade mapped out so I can save for it.
