Wheel Offset/Backspace Question

So how do I know if the offset and backspacing will fit and is okay for my Truck? I found a great deal on these and just want to make sure that the offset and backspacing is okay for our trucks

Will these work on a 05 with a 2.5" level? Eagle Alloy 079 in 20x9 Super Finish Black Offset: -12 mm Backspace: 4.466. I am going to put 305-55-20 Nitto Trails on them

The 4.5" backspacing will cause the wheel to poke out about 2 1/2"

yep they will. I just got my Moto metal 951s in. 18x9 -12mm offset. 4.5" backspacing. haven't ordered tires yet so they aren't installed. but they should sit about 2" or so out from the fender. you may want to look into bushwacker fender flares if you do any off roading.
