Default Having a hard time finding wheels

Got a 07 f150 4x4 screw and I'm looking at buying the xd monsters..I want a 20" rim and I found some for a pretty good price..only thing is the 20x9 backspacing is 5 3/4. Idk if ill have problems with rubbing..there's also a 20x10 rim with a backspacing of 5 I could also get but I'm sure that will rub..I'll be running close to a 35" tires and if I buy the rims there's no return so I'm a little nervous about ordering them now

Should be okay with the 5.75" BS...what is the exact size of the tires you will be running? I had 5.5" BS wheels with 35.1" x 11.6" tires and had zero rubbing...they rubbed on the stock 20's which are 6.14" BS.

I'm not running 20's but my 18" monsters on a 34.5" tire only rub slightly full lock in reverse. Granted mine are a 4.5" backspacing but to my knowledge up to 35s will fit on stock rims. So any aftermarket rims with close backspacing will fit.

It's a 34.7ish tire by 10.8 I believe..but I plan on getting 35x12.50 tire..so I want to make sure neither would rub..and I should have problems with putting those tires on a 20x9 inch rim? This is my first time buying new rims and tires so I'm new to all this

Either of those will fit on a 20x9 wheel. You might rub at full lock with a 35x12.5 but with the 34.7" tire you will be fine with the 5.75" BS
