Default New AEV Pintlers

Saw that they are now offering these wheels with a different offset that will give the JK an extra inch wider stance per corner. Anyone ordered these yet. Im thinking about it, I was gonna get the originals and run spacers but this works out great. Id like to see some pics though if anyone is running the new ones.

Thanks

I'm not sure what 'originals' you are referring to, but I got the 17" Pintlers, non bead lock, and they are out 1.25" at least from the stock Rubi wheels, no spacers needed for my 33 x 12.50R17s

If you go to their site (id post it but I dont know if they are a supporting vendor) they just started offering the Pintlers with a different offset that pushes the wheel out an inch further than the ones previously offered. I like a wider stance, especially after a lift. The old style Pintlers didnt stick out far enough in my opinion, thats why I was going to get spacers with them. Guess im going to have to wait for picks or get my own set.
