I would go with a 4.5" BS it will stick out a little but give it a little more aggressive look.... if you are going with 18's or 20's you can probably get away with a 5-5.5" backspace

yeah a 5.5" BS on a 20 will make it sit flush like a factory style wheel and you will have no clerance issues.... a 4.5" BS will give it an aggressive look and it will stick out about a inch past the fenders

I agree...the 4.5" BS will look good but I know some people like that tucked sporty look
