THE WHEEL BACKSPACE dilema! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Greeting folks. I'm ready to make that all important decision: which wheels and what size. I know I want 20 x 8.5 fronts and 20 x 10(9.5) rears (255 & 275 40 series tires). My problem is I dont know how much BACKSPACE I can get away with without having rubbing issues on the inside or outside of the wheel wells. The truck has a 4-6 drop that may change down to a 5-7 soon. Its a 72 deluxe with stock discs and drums on a 12 bolt posi. Thanks for the help. Mr.E
PS These are the kind of wheels I like.
