honestly, a spacer lift is a spacer lift is a spacer lift. in spite of what some may suggest, they'll all get the job done just fine and you'll just need to determine how much money you want to spend.

AEV comes with sway bar drop links, which I think are important. I don't know if Terra Flex provides these or not. Also, AEV's engineers are former Jeep engineers, and they claim one is the guy who developed the TJ and JK suspensions. Those are the reasons I went with AEV.

Like Wayoflife said...a spacer lift is just a spacer lift. Save your money and go with the Teraflex Leveling Kit.

By the way, I'm running 255/80/17 KM2's on stock rims with no wheel spacers. Tire size and wheel backspacing will probably have more to do with rubbing than anything else.
One nice thing I learned: The shock extensions and brake line extensions on the AEV do their job. I don't think I lost any articulation at all from stock.
