I pulled the trigger on the tires a couple days ago, and I go in next week to get them installed. This weekend I'm going to lift the rear to 3" and dial in the pinion in preparation for the 33s. The front is already at 3" and I decided it's just better to leave the factory rake. I'm also going to tweak the front best I can because part of the tire promo is they do the alignment when it's all said and done. I'd rather not have to adjust arms and alignment twice.

I tell you what after having heard it, it’s an insanely accurate description
@JMT has me covered with a spare he’s sending me, for which I am most appreciative.

Oh snap 
I’m thrilled with how the tires and wheels turned out. Trying to replace the OPDA so I can use them!

Welcome to the Pintler club. Much more exclusive and cooler than being a “Rubi-bro”

Looks great. I love the AEV wheels. The Falkens are great too.

Ok guys, I had to play around with the rear a bit (hehehe) because it was sitting 1-1/2” too high. I dropped it back down to a 3” F+R and it is sitting perfect now. Finally in the 33s club!
It's crazy how much the look changes with wheels and tires.
Its the colors too. I ran 33's with those same wheels...I think the lighter colors highlight them more.
Not that @Jamison C's jeep looks bad or anything, its just interesting to see how colors change perception.

My brother said it almost looked like an off road package you could purchase from the factory. The wheels are more unique but still fit in in a “stock” manner, but the yellow center caps pop and make them look a little more prominent. I’m extremely pleased with how they turned out.
