The 4.25" BS will work as well. There could be a possible interference issue @ the lower control arm when using some drop spindles. It's a simple (& common) fix that requires trimming the lip back (also referred as 'trimming the rain gutter') between the BJ & shock mount tab area.

Also, ordering a 'custom' back space is (was?) $25 extra per wheel.
