Looking for direction on wheel choice

DC, assume you are aware of all the mods needed to make 35's work well. Lots of info on here for that. (new wheels are just the start !!)
 
On my morning walk today... hope the owner doesn't mind!

Some "telephone" AEV wheels on a Gladiator. I understand, different bolt pattern and what appears to be backspacing that would not work.

I currently have a 4" suspension lift, and by then I'll have a 1.25" body lift (with a 1" MML), plus new steering components. And: new gearing, chromealloy axle shafts, lockers, and new ball joints.
Other than the mods to get that stuff to work on its own, did you have something else in mind? I'm all ears!

Thank you. I just edited the post to include the rest of the plan, which is all in the planning stages now. So that thread (which I think I read a while ago, but I'm glad to be reminded of it) will really be helpful.

Oop, very nice! Have you thought about brakes and doing a tummy tuck?
 
I’m considering brakes. I’m avoiding the high-clearance transfer case skid so I don’t need a new driveline.
