So I been hearing that offset smokers do have alot of convection. Looking to do a brisket sometime soon and was thinking 225 would be a good temp and once wrapped looking to jump up to about 275 or so.
 
I would say run her wherever she likes to settle in. Nothing wrong with 250-275.
I don't use an offset that's just info gathered from from others here that do.

I would skip the 225 and run it at 275 or as close as you can to that the whole time.

My offset liked to run around 250F but I have done them as high as 325F.
If cooking hot be prepared for the possibility the brisket may finish at a bit higher internal temp before probing tender.
