Based on AEV confirming the +25mm offset, he's currently running 5.75" backspace.
Test fitting is a good idea to be sure you'll clear.

The current backspacing is 5.7". While it was on the lift, I slid the wheel out about 3/4" (almost to the end of the studs) and it cleared easily at full droop.
I will see if Discount Tire has a wheel we can throw on it before I order a new set though--just to make sure.

^^yup. That's like having 1.5" spacers on stock wheels.
Thats what I thought & I like the steel wheel idea as well. I have 3 bent stock rims & need to replace & thinking steel will hold up better to what I do.
