Default backspace on wheels

im looking into getting 16x10 wheels for the truck and i was wondering what would be a good backspacing for the tires to stick out past the fender

The backspacig on those rims are probably 4.5", and being 16x10 it should stick out past the fender with a 12.5" tire..

But if you want more, anything under 4.5" and you will stick out.

I have 16x10's with at 4.25 backspacing and 295/75's and they look just right to me
