Default Rim help

Hey guys, My dad has an 08 f150 60th anniv. And I need to know what is the smallest rim and what sort of back spacing should I get to make it sorta factoryish.

I can't pull up ebay on my work wifi, but 17s are the smallest that will fit and positive offset wil be closest to factory spec. +35 or so for nine inch wide wheel will be close to stock. Anything less will push them out varying amounts.

With those being -12 offset and 4.5 bs they will stick out two inches or so each side. Doesn't sound like what he is looking for. For nine inch wide wheels close to 6 inches bs will be close to stock.
