Need help picking wheels-2013 2500 LML

I have my wheel choice narrowd down to either black Fuel Octanes or Fuel Pumps in 20x9 (on stock tires for now, I know, yuck). They will be going on a leveled LML.

My main concern is the offset or backspaicing. I want them to stick out, but not awhole lot, around an inch or 1.5 inches. The Octanes come with a 5.5 backspacing and you can get the Pumps in 5 or 5.5" backspacing. Would the 5.5" fit my needs or would I need the 5"? I'm worried that I will either get them to far out or not far enough out from stock.

Any pics of either wheel on an LML would be a huge help. I have googled google images but I haven't found awhole lot. Thanks for any input or pics.

I've got the 20" fuel octanes on my leveled lml. I like em' but they aren't my favorite wheels...got them new and powdercoater for $1g. Fuel just came out with some new kick ass looking wheels. Im thinking about going to the Fuel mavericks when they come out...might want to check them out.

Check page 4 for how far they stick out. I think the pokes perfect.

In 20x9 as 8x180 it's available in et 14 and et25. I'm 95% confident I have the et 14 which has the 5.50" back spacing. I'm hoping to be under the truck tomorrow so ill look.

I was just reading through the posts on your thread and I saw where you posted this:

So do you know for sure which offset it is? Your wheels stick out about exactly where I want mine to be, so I just want to double check what the true offset is. Thank you for helping!

Shit well it looks like I was confused. They are offered in 14 and 25 on the website then combine them in my thread. I wasn't able to get under the truck but give me a few days or ill email the truck shop.
