Default help with wheel purchase

I am going to purchase a set of brand new wheels and need some help. I have an 04 4x4 Screw and very little knowledge of vehicles. I am going to put a leveling kit on the truck and want to purchase 22' rims. Do I need to worry about things like backspacing, offset and hubcentric? I found a site with dirt cheap wheels and don't wanna pass them up. Any help is appreciated. Do you need any other info?

I may have to go with a street tire first because of $ but would hope to eventually put on a set of terra, bfg a/t or cooper zeon. This is the wheel I wanna buy:

PXA6009-22936-1

Pro Comp Xtreme Alloy 22x9.5, 6 on 135 Bolt Pattern
  • Bolt Pattern: 6 on 135
  • Diameter: 22.00 "
  • Width: 9.00 "
  • Style: 09 Series
  • Finish: Chrome
  • Construction: Aluminum
  • Backspace: 6.43 "
  • Max Load: 2200 lbs
  • Hubcentric: No
  • Offset: 30 mm
But I could go with a 20' rim if I needed to.

as long as your not putting an oversized tire on it, the backspacing and all that wouldnt matter. if you go to put a 33" or bigger on, then yea, it will matter.
