Default Sounds good to me?

So after doing what seems like endless research....
I think I am ready to order my parts list, which include (click for link):
2.5" Teraflex BB
Pro Comp 6089 rims 5x5 4.5" of backspace

I have not decided exactly on tires but it will probably be 295/75r16, 305/70r16 or 33x12.50r16's.

Course i have a AEV ProCal tossed in there also...

My question is....this all seems fine to me and should have the ol' JK looking pretty good, is there anything that i'm missing? Are my numbers right as far as tire size and backspace on the rims? I guess i'm just looking for a "yup, looks like a good setup!" or "Yeah, those parts look like a good combo" before dropping the $3,000! lol

Thanks in advance!

i had wondered about that but as far as i could tell from my researching, 2.5" was about max before getting a track bar or adapter for it. Guess ill find out soon enough, i pulled the trigger on it tonight and put in my orders. *crosses fingers*

We (the wife and I) kept tossing around if we should go with 35's vs 33's. we kind of settled on 33's for the newness factor and maybe save a little on gas mileage...what kinda mpg are you getting with 35's? Great pic btw!
